Hello!
My name is Luna Reyna. I am an ambitious, intellectually curious, and collaborative editor, writer, and newsroom leader with experience shaping ambitious journalism across culture, politics, Indigenous affairs, immigration, environmental justice, criminal justice, housing, and more. I specialize in turning complex ideas into compelling, accessible narratives and bring strong editorial judgment, news instincts, and a deep commitment to accuracy, collaboration, and elevating diverse perspectives.
As the first Northwest bureau chief for UNN + ICT, I oversaw editorial operations while reporting, editing, and producing written, visual, and multimedia content across platforms. I managed reporting projects and newsroom workflows, published and maintained digital content through CMS platforms, analyzed audience metrics, and collaborated with publishing partners to expand the reach and impact of our journalism. Previously, as an Indigenous affairs reporter at Crosscut, now Cascade PBS, I covered tribal sovereignty, government accountability, treaty rights, environmental justice, public policy and more.
Over the past decade, I have developed newsletters, web content, social media campaigns, media advisories, and audience engagement materials. I have experience with Mailchimp, Canva, CMS platforms, and audience analytics, as well as managing digital content and developing strategies to inform, engage, and inspire action.
I am interested in continuing to grow as an editor, particularly in roles where I can mentor emerging journalists, elevate diverse voices, and help shape the evolving media landscape. I am equally interested in communications roles with mission-driven organizations where I can bring my journalism, content development, editing, and community-centered storytelling experience to craft compelling narratives and strengthen engagement.
I am also open to consulting and Indigenous relations opportunities. As an Indigenous professional with deep roots in the Pacific Northwest, I have experience building relationships with Native Nations, supporting Indigenous-led initiatives, and developing culturally informed communications and engagement strategies. I am particularly interested in helping organizations build respectful, reciprocal relationships with Indigenous communities and better understand the histories, priorities, and perspectives of Native Nations throughout the region.
At the heart of my work is a commitment to thoughtful storytelling, strong relationships, and creating journalism and communications that inform, connect, and inspire.
