I'm a journalist based in Jammu and Kashmir with over five years of experience in reporting, editing, and multimedia storytelling. My work focuses on gender justice, conflict, public health, and human rights. I’ve contributed to national and international outlets including TwoCircles.net, Media Diversity Institute, 101 Reporters, The Milli Gazette, and Clarion India. Previously, I worked as an Online Desk Editor and Reporter with The Kashmiriyat, handling live news, editorial accuracy, and breaking news. I’ve also produced field-based projects on the public perception of COVID-19 and created a short film (SCAR) on the social impact of gender-based violence.
