Growing up as the daughter of a Catholic-Mexican mother and a Muslim-Palestinian father, I spent most of my childhood asking questions. My early travels between the Middle East and the United States, as well as the switch between three different languages at home, led to the passion I have for exploring the unknown and the constant curiosity of the world around me. For these reasons, international stories have become the main focus and goal in my career. The stories I like to hunt for are personal accounts of an issue, such as profiles, that show the bigger picture of social or global problems and changes. I also love hunting new cultural developments, like how an increased population of immigrants in certain areas has effected the culture of a society. Or the everyday life of a family that was displaced outside its home country because of a war or revolution. As a traveler myself, I am always in search of travel-stories.
