Honored to share my latest piece—a heartwarming look at the incredible support network built by the Chinese American community in Maryland to uplift families of children with special needs.
A video report by AsAmNews contributor Pingping Yin spotlights a grassroots network in Howard County, Maryland, called SEEDS, formed by Chinese American families with children with special needs. Watch it here:

What a wonderful photo!
Never in my wildest dreams did I think we’d be here today, three years in, winning a Pulitzer. My heart is full today. I am so proud of @AlissaZhu @JessMGallagher @FurrierTranform, the newsroom and everyone at this very special organization. thebaltimorebanner.com/commu…

Bret Baier left a strong impression on me, reinforcing my belief that individuals shouldn’t be judged solely by the institutions they work for. Having experienced stereotypes and labels tied to my previous workplace, I deeply relate.

Starting next year, I’ll expand my focus beyond editorial work, transitioning from being a sole journalist to taking on the role of a newsroom operator. To achieve this, building fundraising skills is essential. Can't wait to learn from @Report4America and add it to my toolkit!
Yuan Media is deeply honored to be selected for @Report4America 's pilot accelerator program! This recognition affirms our value and importance to the AAPI communities and the media landscape!

When I introduced Yuan Media to Meng, she said, "Oh, the name's cute," because she speaks Mandarin as well. While "Yuan" means "Origin" in our context, it can also be used to describe chubby children. I think Meng interpreted it in that way🤣
The Congressional Asian Pacific American Caucus @CAPAC prepares for the 119th Congress with a leadership transition. @RepGraceMeng was elected Chair of the CAPAC this week, echoing a broader trend among Democrats to usher in a new generation of leaders: yuanmedia.com/en/articles/gr…

Beautiful story. It reminded me of my similar one two years ago: youtube.com/watch?v=lpZigaBJ…
House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., lit the Capitol Christmas Tree on Tuesday evening to commemorate a 60-year-long holiday tradition in Congress.

Covering this hotly contested race for months has been fascinating. I was astonished to find that, by the end of November 6, fewer than 300 votes out of 320,000 cast separated McClain Delaney and Parrott—a margin of less than 0.1%. It’s a vivid reminder that "every vote counts."
Democrat April McClain Delaney narrowly defeated Republican Neil Parrott in the race for Maryland’s 6th Congressional District, one of the most competitive races in the nation. Both touted their commitments to Asian American voters during their campaigns. yuanmedia.com/en/articles/de…
