Resident Advisor

Nyshka Chandran is a New York-based journalist and editor with over a decade of experience spanning finance, economics, geopolitics, and culture. Currently a senior editor at Resident Advisor, she focuses on the business of music and live events, bringing the same sharp, analytical sensibility she developed covering global affairs for print and broadcast media.

Previously a staff writer at CNBC, Chandran covered financial markets, investment trends, trade, and geopolitics, interviewing subjects ranging from US national security advisors and NATO commanders to Fortune 500 executives and ASEAN government leaders. Her freelance work has appeared in Al Jazeera, the BBC, VICE, Foreign Policy, Vogue Business, and the South China Morning Post, among others.

Beyond reporting, Chandran is an experienced moderator of talks, workshops, and conferences, with a reputation for sharp, informed conversation across disciplines. A third-culture kid who has lived in six countries including Singapore, the UAE, Japan, and Canada, she brings a genuinely international perspective to everything she covers. That depth of lived experience shapes both her worldview and her ability to find the human story at the intersection of markets, politics, and culture.
