About Kristy Pyke

I am a junior at the University of Southern California and am double majoring in comparative literature and public relations. I first discovered my love for journalism working for USC's newspaper, The Daily Trojan. I have continued my experience in journalism working for LAist, one of the top online blogs in Los Angeles.

I have always been passionate about social justice issues in Los Angeles and am deeply convicted about investigating and reporting on topics of poverty, environment, homelessness, race, and equality.
