Salam Namaste, I’m pursuing an MA in Communication, Culture, and Technology at Georgetown University. I also attended the Lede Program at Columbia University. In addition to information verification methods, I deploy data analysis and computational research. Until May 2025, I will work as ACMCU Investigative Media Fellow at Drop Site News. Previously, I was the Growth Manager and Fact-Checking Editor at Zan Times and Senior Fact Checking Journalist at Alt News.

I am interested in analyzing language and discourse, particularly focusing on power dynamics and social inequalities in the context of on-going crimes against humanity and decolonisation. (I’m also an amateur photographer). You can download my resume here.
