Hello there, I’m Kevinisha.

I’m currently a social media editor at The Daily Beast.

I started my career as a features reporter in Louisiana’s Bayou country, writing about people and communities who rarely got the chance to see themselves covered by the media.

In recent years, I switched to the social media side of journalism; specifically, helping to build audiences while continuing to elevate unheard voices.

I have a bachelor’s degree in English from the University of New Orleans and a master’s degree in journalism from Roosevelt University.

I’m based in Long Beach, Calif., which is far away from my native New Orleans.

However, I visit my hometown as often as possible. Some might argue I visit a little too much.
