I’m currently working as an Engagement Editor at NPR in Washington, D.C.

I’ve worked at TEGNA, TODAY on NBC in both digital and broadcast, and was also a videographer and editor for New York University’s Office of Alumni Relations. I graduated from NYU in 2017 with degrees in journalism and psychology, with minors in French and Asian American studies. I will be attending Georgetown University for a Masters in Communication, Culture and Technology in the Fall of 2020.

I’m originally from Naperville, Illinois (a suburb of Chicago). My parents are Vietnamese immigrants. I travel there often, and I’m fluent in the language. I also spent six months in Paris completing a minor, and have reached an advanced level in French as well.

When I’m not in the newsroom, I’m running the DC chapter of the Girly Book Club, or posting new recipes on my food blog. I’m passionate about many things: food and how it informs identity, banh mi, k-pop, frogs, influencer culture and authenticity, personality psychology, French pop music from the 1960s and learning people’s life stories.
