Zero-Crossing: Features of Life & Community

I have an immense passion for connecting with individuals and listening to their unique narratives. Exploring the dynamics of diverse communities, where people from various backgrounds coexist, has always intrigued me. My journalism journey commenced with SU Globalists, a student-led publication at Syracuse University. I embarked on this path as an Assistant Editor and progressively assumed roles as a Copy Editor, Managing Editor, and, ultimately, Editor-in-Chief. Through the lens of a globalist, I have had the privilege of engaging with a remarkable array of individuals within the Syracuse community.

It has been an enriching experience, offering me the opportunity to connect with people from around the world and gain insights into their lives.
