Wire News Editor
Yasmeen Serhan is an American-British journalist with a decade of experience reporting for some of the world’s most widely-read news organizations. She is currently the digital features editor at Reuters, where she oversees recurring series spanning global news and culture, AI, sports and personal finance.
Before joining Reuters in January 2025, Serhan covered foreign affairs for leading American magazines. She was a correspondent for Time in London and a staff writer at The Atlantic, where she helped launch the magazine’s UK bureau and reported on populism and nationalism across Europe.
A Los Altos, California native, Serhan studied international relations at USC Dornsife. She credits the breadth of her coursework — including French, Arabic and journalism classes—for laying the groundwork for her career. “All of these experiences helped build the foundation for my eventual career covering foreign affairs,” she says.
She is now focused on growing as an editor, with a long-term goal of writing a book. Outside the newsroom, she’s an avid distance runner training for her second marathon.
