ABOUT PRIYAM NAYAK

As a Team Lead at Logically, I work on streamlining resources, providing final-stage editing and writing support, and ensuring client requirements are met efficiently. My current focus lies in tackling misinformation and disinformation at scale, utilizing my strengths in research, fact-checking, content strategy, and editing. I have conducted extensive research and reportages on topics such as the anti-vaxx movement in the UK and the disinformation ecosystem surrounding the Russia-Ukraine war. I have also received recognition for my impactful storytelling on how women in rural India coped with COVID-19 misinformation, winning the Laadli Media and Advertising Awards for Gender Sensitivity 2022 in the English web blog category. I have eight years of experience in the dynamic media and communications industry, honing my skills in diverse content creation and strategizing, ranging from features and long-form articles to investigations and engaging social media content. I have worked as a News Producer at Thomson Reuters\' Global Online Desk and as a meticulous Sub-Editor at The New Indian Express\' district desk. Additionally, I have enjoyed the freelance realm, collaborating with esteemed clients, including HT Brand Studio, BBC Indian Languages, and MAKERS India, further expanding my horizons as a versatile content creator. I hold a degree in Print Journalism from Asian College of Journalism Chennai, a BA in English Language and Literature/Letters from St. Xavier\'s College, Ranchi, and a Graduate Certificate in Public Policy (Technology and Policy) from The Takshashila Institution. I am passionate about using my editorial, developmental editing, and new media skills to create meaningful and informative content that empowers audiences.
