My bio, where I'm published and awards I've earned

I am a recent graduate of the University of Southern California, where I earned my Bachelor of Arts in Journalism. At USC I spent many semesters working in student media, including holding multiple semesters as an editor at the Daily Trojan and a member of Annenberg Media's Investigative Desk.  

Outside of my work on campus, I am proud to have held many internships over the last few years at incredible media outlets around LA, including NBC Los Angeles, NBC News, and the Times Media Group. I have also worked with The Fulcrum, LA TACO, The News Media Alliance and Decode Democracy.

In writing, my interests lie in OSINT, the media industry (including the local news crisis) and feature reporting.

I am deeply humbled to say I have received multiple honors and awards throughout my career. Below are some recent accolades:

Awarded at the 2023-24 Best of California College Media awards for my investigation into the aftermath of the Turkiye Conference at USC. Judges said the article was a "comprehensive, balanced account of a hot-button issue that could easily be sensationalized, but was handled with care."

Awarded by the Society of Professional Journalists' Mark of Excellence Awards in May 2025, my radio brief, "Students march silently to support Asna Tabbasum," covered a protest on campus after our valedictorian's graduation speech was canceled.
