Lucy Westcott
I'm a journalist, writer, and reporter with a special interest in women's rights, reproductive rights (namely abortion access and FGM), humanitarian issues, and immigration. My work has appeared in Newsweek, PopSugar, The Atlantic, Bustle, and the Guardian. I also have experience producing branded content and recently worked as a freelance producer and writer at Atlantic Re:think, the branded content arm of the Atlantic. I've reported across the U.S. and from the field in Jordan, Egypt, Cameroon, South Africa and Lesotho. I'm a trivia champion, classically trained singer, film lover, and world traveler. I've visited 47 U.S. states and am looking for reasons to go to Ohio, Hawaii and Alaska.
