Biography
I was most recently reporter at the Evanston RoundTable covering climate, business and local news. As a general assignment reporter at International Business Times, I covered business and tech, with a focus on mergers, governance and earnings. I am a double Medill grad with a master's and bachelor's degree in journalism as well as a minor in media and politics. I have reported on and am interested in business, culture, race, politics, and migration. I was previously a Staff Reporter at The Daily Q, the student-run news website at the university where I reported on breaking news and covered events within Qatar Foundation. I have completed internships at the Pulitzer Center on Crisis Reporting and ILoveQatar.net. As an undergrad, I also worked on-campus as a Teaching Assistant and a Student Affairs Assistant.

This is really one of the first recognitions I’ve received that lets me know all this hard work and effort has begun to pay off,” said owner Cheryl Judice, who opened Hecky’s with her late husband Hecky Powell in 1983.

By Manan Bhavnani Verified| Evanston RoundTable Verified More than two dozen neighbors turned out Tuesday evening to discuss improvements to Larimer Park, 1200 Oak Ave. Indiana-based MKSK presented three concepts for the 1.6-acre site. The park, which was last renovated in 1992, is north of Crain Street and south of Dempster Street between Ridge and Maple avenues in the Fourth Ward. The firm’s first concept, which seemed to have the most support, keeps the park largely as it is today but adds gardens, trees and a drinking fountain.
