hi- i'm taylor weik.

I write about young people and AANHPI (Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander) communities, with work in publications like Teen Vogue, The Guardian, and NBC Asian America. I’m also a content/product marketing professional who turns technical language into stories that resonate with humans.

My writing experience is rooted in journalism, but I’m passionate about storytelling across all mediums—I wrote and developed a video game about the three remaining Japantowns in the U.S. called J-Town: A Visual Novel (play it on Steam or itch.io now!)

I’m a graduate of UC Irvine’s literary journalism and Asian American studies programs. I live in Los Angeles. 🌴
