Behind the Review – S1E4 – Shireen Ahmed, Beyond the Pitch with Soraya El-Houni

Evan is completing his final year in the Bachelor of Journalism program at TMU and is passionate about writing pieces relating to education, mental health, and navigating the trials of adolescence. He also volunteers at Met Radio’s “Movie Mixtape” team where he gets to express his love for the world of film. When he’s not writing though, you can always find him sketching away, creating miniature crafts, or filming/editing videos.

Matthew is in his final year of the Master of Journalism program. He has written stories for The National Post, Spacing, CanCulture, and more. He is interested in writing stories about social justice, art, and culture.

Soraya is a second-year Master of Journalism student at Toronto Metropolitan University. She has written for Toronto Life, SEASON Zine and Darby Magazine. She is interested in long-form writing, sports, culture, and social justice.

Chloe is in her final year of the Master of Journalism program and works on the Review’s senior editorial team. She is interested in audio-based journalism and stories that prioritize underrepresented voices. She’s interned at The Big Story Podcast and CBC’s Day 6.
