National Edward R. Murrow Awards
Radio Free Asia won two National Edward R. Murrow Awards in 2025 for its multimedia report titled "Myanmar's Gen Z fighting for a nation's future," which documented the struggles and resilience of young people in Myanmar after the 2021 military takeover. The coverage highlights the challenges faced by this generation as they work toward a better future for their country. I was involved in pre-production, production to post post-production. I videographed and edited all the video stories in the series.
