Before coming to The Post, Eva spent seven years at the Wall Street Journal covering business and political news from Beijing and Taipei. Standout stories included an investigation into the use of forced labor from Xinjiang and an exploration of China’s surveillance technologies that was part of a 2018 Loeb Award-winning team project. A native of Detroit, Eva is a graduate of the University of Missouri, where she majored in economics and journalism. She speaks fluent Mandarin and is at work on a book about the mysterious family dynasty at the center of Huawei, whose technologies have helped enforce China’s growing police state.

Eva will be based in D.C. With her arrival, the formidable Cat Zakrzewski, who has dominated coverage of Washington’s clashes with the tech industry, will become our point person on tech policy at the White House while leading coverage of AI regulation and the legal and legislative battles over free speech online. The tenacious Cristiano Lima will expand his portfolio to include a new focus on privacy and kids’ online safety, a mounting debate with a growing fleet of stakeholders. Cristiano will continue to cover tech policy on the Hill and anchor the popular Technology 202 newsletter.
