Interview

What was your first job as a journalist?

I interned at The Moscow Times in 2013, that's when I knew that there was no going back!

Have you ever used a typewriter?

No, but I think it would be a really cool experience. (i'll update if that happens anytime soon)

How is social media changing news?

Urgency in story telling has been created for better & for worse. Stories are more expedient, however, at times fact-checking is compromised.

What does it mean to be a journalist?

To be a journalist is to serve society in the duty of telling the truth.

What story are you most proud of writing or working on?

Honestly, I'm proud of all of my stories. They were all written with care and love.
