About

The author paying respect to the pilots of the fastest hunk of junk in the galaxy.

I’m an investigative reporter, researcher, and fact-checker based in Washington, D.C. who writes about extremism, guns, national and local politics, disinformation, and corruption. I spent the past two years as a Ben Bagdikian Reporting Fellow at Mother Jones , where I wrote everything from breaking news to months-longs investigative features for the magazine.

Prior to Mother Jones, I cut my teeth in local reporting, as the Associate Editor and Editor-in-Chief of DCist and the Arts Editor for the Washington City Paper.
