I'm an award-winning writer and photographer focused on politics, the economy and the environment. I've covered the pandemic, state legislatures, governors' offices, congressional campaigns, the oil and gas industry, pollution, the Flint water crisis and more as a state politics reporter for The Associated Press, The Detroit News and The Santa Fe New Mexican. I also offer fact-checking and research services. Select clients include WBEZ (Chicago's NPR), Patagonia, The Detroit News, Youth Today (a project from the Center for Sustainable Journalism), Chalkbeat, Capital & Main and more.
