I am co-founder and editor of Red, White and Brown Media, focused on chronicling South Asian American stories.
I have worked for several media organizations, including ProPublica, PBS News Hour, The Washington Post, Peninsula Press, Stanford Computational Journalism Lab, Mashable and NBC News Digital.
Early in my career, I once worked for NBC’s TODAY show, where my morning-person tendencies helped, as well as for “Food Network Challenge,” where I (sadly) learned no one really ate the cakes after the desserts sat under studio lights all day.
I love dogs, including my pup Laddoo

Well, this is meta. Sometimes, I get interviewed about stuff by other journalists.
Sometimes, I talk at events or on shows about stories, news industry trends and more.
Sometimes, I get to put something on my refrigerator.
Call me, beep me, if you wanna reach me.
The Red, White and Brown newsletter on Substack facilitates conversations about South Asian American communities.
