Field is an international correspondent for CNN based at the network’s Asia-Pacific headquarters in Hong Kong. She reports extensively throughout the Asia-Pacific region and covers global breaking news.
She has reported from the field in the aftermath of major terror attacks in Dhaka, Istanbul, Paris, Brussels and Boston. Filing a series of in-depth stories, she traced a rash of killings claimed by Islamist militants across Bangladesh and the fight to protect women from so called honor killings in rural regions of Pakistan.

She has also reported on the ongoing legal fight for anti-trafficking legislation in Hong Kong.
Since joining CNN International, Field has reported from Seoul and Beijing following North Korean nuclear tests, and from Vietnam for US President Barack Obama’s visit in 2016.
