Hi, I’m Divya.

I'm Divya, and I'm a newsletters strategist at Yahoo News. I previously worked on newsletters, social media and audience development at the Detroit Free Press and Planet Detroit, and I covered New York City news for THE CITY.

I have experience in features journalism, business and economics reporting, audience and community engagement, social strategy and blogging. tl;dr I've flexed my reading and writing muscles for as long as I could do both of those things. I'm not sore yet!

Other things I enjoy: solving crosswords, lifting weights and mailing handwritten letters and postcards. (I've become a big fan of "catching up on my correspondence.")

I have a Masters in engagement journalism and business and economics journalism at the Craig Newmark Graduate School of Journalism at CUNY and a Bachelor’s in magazine journalism from Syracuse University.
