I'm a journalist who's interested in narrative non-fiction and stories that often go unheard. I usually write about anything that fascinates me including but not limited to minority issues, mental health, culture, food, and more. In my free time, I enjoy watching indie films, traveling to unexplored destinations, dancing, and looking for unparalleled rooftop views.

When public agencies get real-time data, contractor accountability goes up with it

|
By Boshika Gupta Verified
| Under the Hard Hat
For many public works agencies, operations remain scattered and chaotic—crews often drive multiple routes to search for potholes manually, paper rosters track school bus riders, and staff members coordinate waste pickup verification via phone calls and detailed spreadsheets. This remains the baseline in many municipalities, often leading to delays, overlooked issues, and disputes over what actually transpired in the field.

| Under the Hard Hat
Finding operators willing to perform the same routine tasks every shift is becoming increasingly hard for contractors. While some tasks do require skill and judgment, others are far too predictable.

Have you ever used a typewriter?

I wish to. I've never been able to buy one but I hope to get my hands on one soon! A typewriter is tangible, old school, and beautiful.

What's your favorite social network?

Let's say I don't have a favorite. It's a double-edged sword — you're never good enough on social media and that's exhausting.

Why did you become a journalist?

It's not the most original answer but I'm all for transparency. I wanted to change the world (and psst...I hoped that I'll be remembered).
