Lola Kadas joined Harbingers’ Magazine in the summer of 2024 as a contributor during the Oxford pop-up newsroom. After completing the newsroom and the writing course, she became a staff writer later that autumn, covering society and public affairs.

Her strong writing and dedication to the magazine led to her appointment as Society Section Editor in 2025. During this time, she also reported from Bali, Indonesia, where she worked on a special project exploring the local mental health landscape and produced a series of thought-provoking articles.

Following a successful year in that role, and in recognition of her steady development and commitment, Lola stepped into the role of Editor-in-Chief in 2026, sharing the position with Arnav Maheshwari.

This will mark the first time the magazine is led by joint Editors-in-Chief, reflecting the growing scope and ambition of the publication. In her new role, she also took part in the Special Newsroom 2026, traveling across five European cities to explore the history of genocide through expert-led learning, field visits and on-the-ground journalism.

Born in 2009, Lola has lived in Budapest, Hungary, California, United States, and Warsaw, Poland. She is interested in pop culture, history, politics and music. She speaks English, Hungarian, French, and Spanish.

In her free time, she enjoys going to concerts and photography, and visiting interesting historical sights (like Karl Marx grave in London).
