My name is Autriya Maneshni, and I am a reporter for Arizona State University Odyssey. I joined the Odyssey Online as an incoming freshman at the Walter Cronkite School studying Journalism and Mass Communication at ASU.

Going into my freshmen year, I am covering topics ranging from student life to entertainment and more! Aside from Odyssey, I also am involved at Blaze Radio as a music DJ as well as being apart of Barrett at ASU. I love the community at ASU and it is by far the best school to have pride in.

A little bit about me outside of school...I am from Scottsdale Arizona, originally born in Tehran.

A fun fact about me is that I am fluent in Farsi/Persian. I am a music enthusiast because I love playing music and self-taught myself the guitar and ukulele. I also was in choir from 5th grade till 12th and loved every moment of it. Along with choir I also joined Indoor Percussion at my high school so I learned how to play the vibraphone.
