More about me
I host and produce the podcast Asian Americana, a show about Asian American culture and history. I'm also the producer-editor of the podcast #GoodMuslimBadMuslim, and a founding member of Potluck: an Asian American podcast collective. I'm an alumnus of NPR's Next Generation Radio program, having been both a fellow and a mentor.

I've also:
- Produced features that ran on KPCC shows Take Two and The Frame
- Produced a devised audio theatre piece for Pomona College, working with a professor and students to turn written interviews and scripts into narrative and scenes
- Produced an experiential audio piece as companion to a discussion and workshop from Tuesday Night Project
- Developed a 3-episode pilot run of the podcast Rest + Revolution
- Advised production and creation of the podcast Romcomathon

In my own work, I'm especially passionate about telling more Asian American stories, especially those of Southeast Asian Americans. I'd also like to be a resource to work with more communities of color (especially Asian Americans) in learning how to produce narrative style podcasts.

In general, I'm looking to produce more narrative pieces, and have lots of experience both editing conversation and narrative format podcasts.
