Eva Chillura is a journalist with four years of professional experience, graduated from George Washington University Class of 2024 with a B.A. in Journalism and Mass Communications. 

She interned on the POTUS channel at SiriusXM and was a host of the show The Flaneur on WRGW which started airing in 2021. She also interned for SCETV in 2021. From 2019-2020, she was the Editor in Chief of the Tribal Tribune, an award-winning student publication located in Charleston, SC, and through this position was awarded South Carolina Journalist of the Year in 2020.

She is driven by telling the stories of others and giving a voice to the silenced through her work and has a deep desire to pursue how digital media and journalism can connect us.

She has written and covered topics ranging from the hemp industry to mass shootings to sports profiles and more. She finds that sharing the experiences of one's local community connects our world even more and sheds light on issues that are hitting closer to home than one might think. Journalists have to capture broader issues as they affect the marginalized people in a community because local student journalism is the voice of the people -- now more than ever.
