Lizzie Ramirez interned at The Nevada Independent before joining The Times-Independent. At The Indy, she helped cover the 2025 legislative session, aiding the legislative team in writing live blogs, monitoring hearings, and connecting pending legislation to Nevadans to illustrate how potential laws could impact the state. Prior to graduating from the University of Nevada, Reno with her master's degree, Ramirez worked for Teen Vogue where she served as Nevada’s correspondent. She reported how young people were mobilizing in battleground states in an attempt to swing the election.
