In addition to her community activism, she has also gained recognition over almost two decades as a Broadcast Journalist, Investigative Reporter and Anchor. Beginning in the 1980’s, she has become a familiar face on local television. She has focused her reporting skills on the Asian community and worked tirelessly as an advocate for New Americans in the greater New York area. She is multilingual and speaks several languages including Italian, Hindi and Urdu. 

Her programs can be seen regularly on International Television (Time Warner Cable of New York Channels 77 & 503) and on Queens Public Television (QPTV), which is also broadcast on Time Warner Cable in Queens. Renee graduated in Broadcast Journalism from the State University of New York, Old Westbury, Long Island and also has an Honors Diploma from the London School of Journalism. She has complemented her academic qualifications with a wealth of hands-on experience developed during her long tenure as a working journalist.

With her keen reportorial eye, commitment to truth and her unwavering integrity, Renee’s programs are not only entertaining and invigorating but also educational and informative. Over the years, Renee has produced and reported groundbreaking programs on a variety of issues including domestic violence, human rights, drug and alcohol abuse, health care, immigration law, tort law, public safety, hate crime, education, family life, new technologies and many more.

She has served as an effective conduit between new immigrants and policy makers by using her access to the media responsibly and bringing forth issues that impact this group. Among them she has focused on Medicare/Medicaid, Social Security, Children with Special Needs, Reckless Driving & DWI, Identity Theft, Voter Registration, Affordable Housing, Predatory Lending and Zoning Laws. The latter is an issue with which she has first-hand experience as a member of the Land Use & Zoning Committee on Community Board 6 covering Rego Park, Forest Hills, Woodhaven and Kew Gardens. In fact, she has been appointed by the Chairman of Community Board 6 to a special committee to assess the expansion of the Rego Park Mall, one of the most contentious issues in the borough of Queens.  She has used her access to Policy Makers and Politicians effectively by bringing them home to her viewers; and allowing the viewers to better understand the laws and their rights as New Americans.
