Hellooo, I'm Jasmine! 

I am a Senior Journalist at Storyful News. In this role, I discover, license, clear, verify, and write articles about timely news and viral video content. I have reported on countless breaking stories, including global protests, the assassination attempt on President Trump, the Iran conflict, ICE-involved shootings, international climate emergencies, and more.

 

My work focuses on social media newsgathering, visual investigations, and combating mis/disinformation. I’m also interested in how AI is shaping the online information ecosystem, from risk intelligence and real-time monitoring of breaking events to trust and safety and synthetic media detection.

Previously, I worked at CBS Media Ventures, BuzzFeed Studios, ABC News, and VICE News, with a primary focus on breaking news and documentaries.

 

Down the line, I’d love to use open-source intelligence to investigate and document human rights violations and help hold those responsible accountable.

Outside of my newsy life, I am a UC Berkeley graduate, where I studied Global Studies and Journalism. In my free time, I take aimless walks for hours on end, read poetry, obsessively create Spotify playlists, and bake delicious treats for my family and friends (we won't talk about the numerous kitchen fires I've started).

Check out my Junkyard to learn a little bit more about the storytellers, organizations, and people that inspire me to be a better journalist and person (along with my top recommendations for coffee shops and restaurants in the city)!
