Biography
Hi! My name is Vivian, and I love telling stories. Whether it be that of my own or others, I've always had a passion for retelling lived experiences through digital media and journalism. In my work, I strive to give a voice to the voiceless and populate mainstream news cycles with diverse narratives. I want traditionally underrepresented individuals to feel visible and proud of occupying space within the work that I create because representation in media is so crucial to identity formation and perception. To carry out these goals, I have trained expertise in Adobe InDesign, WordPress, Canva, copy editing, and writing through a multitude of journalistic leadership positions. I served as a reporting fellow for the Pulitzer Center for Crisis Reporting and the executive editor of the student newspaper, The Flat Hat. I am now a Jim Lehrer Fellow at PBS News Hour. I graduated from William & Mary Summa Cum Laude with a self-designed degree in Journalism and Digital Media along with my primary degree in History, fascinated by the dual process of learning the past while participating in the documentation of the present. Please feel free to look through my portfolio and contact me at vvhoang@protonmail.com. As a huge extrovert and journalism nerd, I love meeting new people to talk all things journalism and am always on the lookout for new opportunities!

The Flat Hat
The Flat Hat has been the College of William and Mary's student newspaper since 1911. It covers the College and the surrounding area of Williamsburg, Va. The Flat Hat is produced entirely by a volunteer all-undergraduate staff. It has no faculty adviser. The student journalists of The Flat Hat control all online and print content. The production of the paper's news and editorial content are in no way supervised by any College administrator. The Flat Hat also controls its own advertising and business departments. In October 2007, The Flat Hat won the Pacemaker award for excellence in the category of non-daily newspaper at a four-year university, and in 2010 was listed by College Media Matters as one of the 30 best collegiate newspapers in the United States.
