Longform Biography
From the day I was born, I have been globe-trotting. I am proud to say I am a daughter of a traveling diplomat. Traveling all over the world has shaped me to become an aspiring worker in public policy. I had to adapt to the change in culture and unfamiliar environment from a very young age. Writing and sharing my experiences was a way I could escape into an imaginary mind-cave. Having a journalism background has given me the opportunity to meet people I wouldn't have been able to meet. I love documentaries, long-form journalism, investigative journalism, pop culture, and social issues. I hope to travel the world and write, cover, and shoot stories to share and hopefully impact an audience.
