Amber Ly is a journalist who is drawn to telling stories that inspire hope. Even though the world may often feel bleak, she’s learned that conversation can be key to healing.

She was formerly a producer and sometimes-reporter for YR Media — formerly known as Youth Radio. In this role, she collaborated with young storytellers to cover issues at the forefront for Generation Z. She also ran YR Media’s internship program, where she mentored and trained the next generation of journalists.

In her free time, you can find her lining up at a boba shop, browsing in a record store or admiring another houseplant she might bring home and accidentally kill (oops).
