My name is Shruti Rajkumar and I am currently a senior journalism major and public relations minor at Emerson College in Boston. In 2018, I attended The School of The New York Times, where I took the course Writing the Big City: Reporting in New York taught by New York Times journalist Michelle Higgins. I have been published in Flawless Mag, The Berkeley Beacon, The Intersectionalist Mag, AsAmNews, Modern Luxury Media, and Overachiever Magazine. My focus in journalism is reporting on the intersection of race and disability. I also have a lot of intersectional advocacy experience, through my leadership positions in The Asian Americans With Disabilities Initiative, as well as Emerson College's Access: Student Disability Union, Dean's Fellowship for Diversity, Equity and Inclusion, and Protesting Oppression With Educational Reform (POWER).
