About Me + Portfolio

Hi, I’m Orli Santo. I’m a veteran human-interest journalist and promotional writer, with a decade of experience as an Israeli-American correspondent and staff writer. As a freelancer, my features have been published in prominent outlets such as Vice News, The Daily Beast, The Times of Israel, JTA, 972Magazine, BroadwayStars, and numerous smaller blogs. I write about diverse topics, but have a particular affinity for marginalized and fringe communities. Being a multinational immigrant, I know the struggle and the potential inherent in the “outsider” label. I seek to explore it, translating our complex realities into a simple and compelling narrative, so we may experience each other’s truths -- regardless of what they are.
