Sudan was born in Wichita, Kansas, and raised in Iowa, Louisiana.
Her love for journalism began when she was only five years old. She then followed her passion to McNeese State University where she worked as a student newspaper editor and interned at the American Press writing for print and digital media.
Sudan’s work never ended, somehow, she always found ways to advance her skills by working as a student photographer at McNeese Marketing and Communications Department and as a media producer for Living Word Christian Center.
She loves helping and sharing news with her community.
During Sudan’s downtime, she enjoys spending quality time with her family and her teacup Yorkie, Paris Mone’ Britton.
