Hi! I'm Areena 🙏🏻

I'm a data journalist, occassional food blogger, obsessed with talking about news media's evolution and a 🪴serious house plant enthusiast!🪴

I'm the first-ever Editorial Coder at The Hindu. I made interactives for the data team!

Before this, I was at Knox News.

Having studied abroad for both my bachelor's and master's, I know firsthand how complicated the process is and I've learned a few tricks along the way on navigating it. If you are, or know someone, looking to study abroad soon (particularly the U.S.), I may be able to help. Watch this space for some exciting announcements soon!

I'm also looking for freelance opportunities in India and I'm available for commission for writing, editing, data collection and analysis and data visualization!
