Over the course of my career, I've been lucky to work alongside people who challenged me, trusted me, and pushed my work further. Here's what some of them have said.

 
Alamin has a unique combination of talent, drive, passion and humility. His ability to write articles, produce videos and simultaneously manage multiple social media platforms has been crucial to the success of our site. He’s also an idea generator, consistently pitching story ideas and broader social and digital initiatives. And, perhaps most importantly, he takes pride in his work and is completely humble despite being a total superstar.

“Alamin is one of the most adaptable people I've worked with. Over his time as social media director at Entertainment Weekly his job and goals changed almost completely as the world transitioned from predominantly sessions-driving written content to video and beyond. He learned quickly and tackled every new technical skill while continuing to lead his team through their massive transformation.”

— Patrick Gomez, Editor in Chief, Entertainment Weekly

“Alamin is passionate about pop culture and resonant storytelling across mediums. His dedication to evolution in writing and producing also encourages those around him to elevate their game, making for a stronger team and a stronger overall product. He has a natural curiosity and raises the right questions about processes and content. Those strengths — combined with reliability, diligence, and an awesome sense of humor — make him a pleasure to work with and an asset to every project he takes on.”

— Chanelle Berlin Johnson, Director, Audience Engagement, LAist

“Alamin is the epitome of a team player: passionate, flexible, supportive, creative, cool under pressure, and, above all, an absolute pleasure to work with. I am most impressed by how he takes ownership of every task in front of him and works consistently to improve content to connect with the right audiences. He is able to tackle any subject matter, but especially shines at entertainment content.”
