The Daily Illini

Layli Nazarova, Staff Writer

My name is Layli Nazarova and I am a freshman majoring in Journalism. I am interested in International Politics and Business reporting. I joined The Daily Illini in the Fall 2022 as a writer, and since Spring 2023, I have been working as an Assistant News Editor. Also, I work as a teaching assistant at the College of Media, so you can see me there all the time! In addition to being an Illini and writing, I enjoy watching horror dramas, listening to heavy metal music and singing. If you have any questions, you reach me at [email protected].
