I got into this field because I want to arm the public with accurate information and tell stories that help people better understand both the world and each other. I’ve written for UCI’s school newspaper, appeared on the radio at NPR and produced mini-documentaries in my own freelance work. I’m a child of two immigrants, grew up in Anaheim and have been a sunny SoCal boy my whole life.
