I’m a journalist and writer based in Los Angeles. Currently, I report at the Asian Journal, a leading newspaper and news website for the Filipino American community. With more than six years of experience, I have reported on a wide variety of beats including culture, policy, and all matters concerning the FilAm community and the broader AAPI community.

Since 2020, I am also an adjunct professor at my alma mater, Cal Poly Pomona, where I teach a copyediting course. As a journalism student at CPP, I took on the exciting role of research assistant for a published study on election polling. I was voted The Poly Post’s Most Valuable Writer in 2016.

I live in Pasadena, California with my cat Daisy, a budding star on TikTok.
