    Voices of Journalism is a monthly show where we sit down with early career journalists and explore the challenges of the fast-paced reporting world, particularly as a result of Covid-19.

He's been in the industry a few years, freelancing in China and interning at a few organizations such as CNN and the Nikkei Asian Review. A Yenching Scholar from Peking University, and a post-graduate in Journalism from the University of Hong Kong Class of 2020, he now works at the South China Morning Post (SCMP).
