Asian American Communities Reporter
(she/her)
I report on the intersection of being Asian and American and the impact of our growing communities in Southern California.
I started working in newspapers straight out of college, with assignments that took me from Central America’s largest dump to coastal Mississippi post-Katrina. I made the jump to public radio as a host and reporter for Maine Public Radio. I joined this newsroom in 2012, where I’ve covered various beats -- immigration, housing and religion -- always keeping an ear out for underrepresented voices.
One of the best things about LA is there’s always something new to try and I’m mostly talking about food. Also, visiting family in Asia is just a non-stop flight away.
