    Nashville, TN (TN Tribune)— WPLN News has hired Juliana Kim as the newsroom’s first Education
    Reporter, starting May 3, 2021. 

    For the past year, Kim has been a reporting fellow at The New York Times, where she covered the
    New York City school system through the lens of kids and families. She was also part of reporting
    teams that investigated New York City’s high unemployment rate and the Atlanta spa shootings. Kim
    has also worked at ProPublica and the Baltimore Sun. Kim is especially passionate about focusing on
    equity and the achievement gap in education. 

    “I admire WPLN’s commitment to telling stories that are nuanced, contextualized and people-
    centered,” Kim says. “With that, I am excited to expand the station’s coverage of students from
    underrepresented backgrounds, including recent immigrants, low-income students and pupils from
    rural areas.” 

    This newly created position adds another reporter to WPLN’s growing news team.
    “Juliana brings a wealth of national reporting and accountability experience, along with a strong
    sense of the mission of local public radio — to go deep on stories that have a real impact on the
    conversations around Middle Tennessee,” says Emily Siner, news director of WPLN News. “We’re
    excited to see what we’re able to cover with a dedicated education reporter.” 

    A first-generation college graduate and New York native, Kim attended Barnard College in New York
    City. She was a senior staff reporter at The Columbia Spectator, the second-oldest college daily
    paper in the U.S. 

    Nashville Public Radio would like to thank the Thorne Family Charitable Fund, the Scarlett
    Foundation, the HCA Healthcare Foundation, the Joe C. Davis Foundation and Carol Kirshner for
    their generous support of our education beat.
