About

I'm a data journalist and reporter currently based in New York City. With a Master's degree in Data Journalism from Columbia University, I focus on stories that use data to illuminate human rights issues, climate change impacts, and political developments.

My work has appeared in international publications including The Guardian, New Lines Magazine, The New Humanitarian, and The Diplomat. In 2024, I was honored to be selected as a finalist for the Thomson Foundation's Young Journalist Award.

I'm passionate about using both traditional reporting methods and data analysis to uncover stories that might otherwise remain untold, particularly from marginalized communities.
