my name is asha swann. i'm a 24-year-old creator. mostly i write about women, sustainability, politics, human rights, books, '90s trends, veganism, and sometimes travel. my writing is generally conversational, and i love some em dashes and oxford commas.

​

right now i'm pursuing a bachelor of journalism degree at toronto metropolitan university (formerly known as ryerson) with a double minor in ethics and english. i was the 2022 recipient for the emerge media awards in the best editorial category.

​

i was a nonfiction writing counsellor at the young writers initiative during the summer of 2021, and that's probably the project i've been most proud of.​

​

i recently completed an internship for brightly about all things sustainable and eco-friendly, but i've also written for her campus, juven press, style canada, nuvo magazine, next big thing, and more.​

​

all i've ever wanted to do is create something authentic.
