Hello Kitty hunting — which involves going to stores like HomeGoods and Marshalls in search of Sanrio products — has become something of a sport at this point. You’ve probably seen at least one TikToker documenting their journey traveling from store to store, whether they were after the Hello Kitty-shaped cookie jar or Hello Kitty blanket. It’s become such a huge thing that people have even started sharing Hello Kitty hunting advice, recommending times that shoppers should arrive at their local store. Some have even traveled to different states for Hello Kitty.

Commerce Assistant Editor

I've been a full-time journalist since 2023, but my experience in the field goes back further. I graduated magna cum laude from NYU's Gallatin School of Individualized Study, where I developed my own major called Culture Writing and Criticism. While working my way up to Editor-in-Chief at the school blog, I earned a number of bylines at TV Guide Magazine, CNN, Decider, and Texas Monthly.At those publications, I mostly focused on art and entertainment. However, I’ve always loved shopping, writing reviews, and service journalism — which is what led me to giving commerce writing a try as an intern at CNN Underscored. There, I had a ton of fun producing beauty and fashion shopping stories, which ended up preparing me for my work as AT's commerce editorial assistant.I’ve long been passionate about interior design and taken pride in the appearance of my space, whether it was my dorm room or my first tiny studio. Exploring that interest professionally has been a dream, and I love thinking about a product from every angle and figuring out if it's really worth it. As someone who was recently on a student budget and works with a small living space, I especially like to find and share items that are compatible with that lifestyle. In my eyes, a great product equally delivers on style and function, ideally at an affordable price point.
