- Hi! I’m Shun Ahmed, and I’m from right here in Nashville, TN. I’m planning on majoring in Mechanical Engineering and Computer Science, but I’ve also been glued to my camera since I was little. Expect a fair share of anchoring the news, articles about the beauty of the world, and maybe even a podcast or two while I’m here. Anchor down!

She is most looking forward to covering events for the famed Commons Cup (Go East!)
