Hey, I’m Ginny Tonkin!

Welcome to my personal blog, a work in progress that allows me to play with new media — and share my experiences living and working abroad. Currently, I’m living in China, working at Edelman in Beijing.

The “long” bio? Oh, that’s right here.

I love learning new things. Currently, a few of my side self-educational pursuits include:

• Mandarin Chinese (with a one-on-one tutor and ChinesePod)
• HTML and Web Design (with Skillcrush and a little help from my friends)

With an interest in mobile tech and digital journalism, I used to work with GoErie and have written for Mobisights.

I like to understand new media by creating pet projects. Previously, I created #PollutionGram, where I tracked Beijing’s air pollution with one Instagram photo a day.

I also have an interest in helping women realize their best selves, and as a part of Lean In Beijing, helping women in China, through community, events, and content.

Want to get in touch? Find me on LinkedIn and Twitter. Shoot me an email at ginnytonkin (at) gmail (dot) com.

Mostly, I just wish I was as cool as this guy here.
