Hello! My name is Kleigh, I'm a Filipina freelance journalist based in NYC. I recently graduated from the New School with a bachelor of arts in Journalism + Design. I am a lover of fashion, beauty, film, music, matcha lattes, and all things cute.

My writing tends to revolve around my scattered cultural interests, often in combination with my Asian American identity. Additionally, as a shopping obsessed member of Gen Z, I am constantly staying up to date with fashion and beauty trends as well as popular products.

In Dec 2020, I co-founded Kindergarten Mag, a literary magazine dedicated to giving a platform to young artists and writers. As co-editor in chief, I serve as the magazine's graphic designer, editor, and social media manager.

Thanks for visiting! Below you can view my work on different platforms and if you scroll down you can contact me.
