Covering Startups, Platform Economy, and Digital Labour
Passionate about journalism and digital transformation
I am a journalist with a passion for covering topics such as startups, electric mobility, and platform/gig economy, amongst others. I take a keen interest in working on data-driven stories.
As a 2025 Youth Ambassador of the Internet Society and Danish Siddiqui Scholar 2023, I have worked on digital media projects exploring how lack of Internet access excludes communities from opportunities while investigating how online spaces can expose individuals — especially journalists and marginalized groups — to emotional, physical, and psychological harm.
