Published Writings

Currently, I write data-driven narratives on key socio-economic subjects  for CEDA where I am an associate editor. Previously, I have reported for news outlets focusing on issues of inclusion, representation and social justice.

My reportage and writing often combines data analysis with reporting and expert interviews. I also write data-backed opinion pieces on women's representation in politics.
