Reporting, Research, & Media Analysis

While my time at KSMU shaped me as a journalist, my mission goes beyond one newsroom. I continue to work toward creating platforms for free speech, covering issues that matter, and mentoring the next generation of journalists—especially those from conflict zones who, like me, dream of a world where stories can be told without fear.
