Sreedevi Sripathy Senior Program Manager of the South Asian American Digital Archive (SAADA) will join Dr. Fariha Khan's "South Asians in the US" course. 

Sreedevi Sripathy has worked in public media for 18 years, with a focus on amplifying unheard voices and untold stories. She most recently directed a fellowship of 20 independent documentary filmmakers in the early research and development phase of their projects. Previously the Director of Production and Programming at WHYY, she built relationships with local filmmakers and community organizations, increasing the portfolio of films from BIPOC makers. She started her career with ITVS, supporting the distribution of documentaries to PBS stations across the country, where she worked on the Emmy award winning series Independent Lens and the international documentary series Global Voices. She is thrilled to join the SAADA team and community, especially because it's the only place she’s worked where you can find paan in the kitchen cupboards!
