I am a reporter and writer with two decades of journalism experience, most of which was spent at Reuters News Agency. I currently write on a broad range of general and health news for a variety of publications and organizations. I am also a co-host of the NüVoices podcast, which highlights the expertise, experiences, and creative of women and other marginalized groups on topics related to China, its diaspora, and the broader Sinosphere.

I’ve also written for publications including The Walrus, The Globe and Mail, WebMD/Medscape, CTVNews.ca, EnRoute, San Francisco Chronicle, and others.

My personal areas of interest include topics related to China, women’s issues, media/journalism, immigration, the environment, science and technology, and too much Asian television.

As a Canadian correspondent for Reuters, I wrote on a wide range of subjects, from the birth and demise of Target Canada to interviews with Kate Winslet and Ethan Hawke. My primary focus was business news and financial markets (stocks, currency, economy), with beats including Canadian retail, transportation (yes, planes, trains, and automobiles), and financial technology (fintech). I also covered the Toronto International Film Festival four times.

Prior to joining Reuters, I spent a year teaching and working at Nankai University, in Tianjin, China. I have an A.M. in Journalism from Stanford University, and an Honours B.A. from the University of Toronto.
