Archana Pisupati is a data/investigations reporter for the Hill and a journalism major with a minor in ethics, public policy, science and technology. In her opinion the most profound form of progress is learning, reading and storytelling. As a journalist, she says she gets to be at the forefront of so many amazing stories and learn more about campus every day. She joined Mustang News the summer before her first year at Cal Poly and have loved every minute of it with my amazing fellow reporters and experienced staff. As a first year, she was given so many opportunities, such as the ACP conference, that she’ll never forget. In her free time, she loves writing poetry, café hopping, thrifting and crafting oddly specific Spotify playlists.
