about

Hi, I’m Naina, a student journalist at the University of Texas at Austin, originally from the Bay Area in California.

I’m a rising junior at UT, majoring in Journalism and American Studies, and am especially passionate about reporting on politics and social issues, as well as visual storytelling. Currently, I’m the Associate Photo Editor for The Daily Texan and a community freelance reporter for the Austin American-Statesman, covering the city of Bee Cave.

In the past, I’ve worked as a senior news reporter and senior photographer for The Daily Texan, an editorial intern for the Austin Chronicle, and freelance reporter and photographer for Shift Press.
