I'm a data and graphics journalist and web developer based in New York City. I'm currently a Reporter at the Tow Center for Digital Journalism. I'm passionate about using data and graphics to uncover the stories that impact lives and build a better world. I love actually talking to real human beings, making order from chaos, and figuring out seemingly unsolvable problems. I also care deeply about accessibility — taking insanely complex topics and critical information and making it clear and understandable.

My career has sometimes followed a bit of a zigzag path, but I've worked at outlets including Axios, Vox, The Marshall Project, the Associated Press, and others. My work spans from local and national shoeleather reporting to interactive graphics and tools, covering topics from AI-generated misinformation and U.S. weapons sales to law enforcement staffing trends. It has been cited in congressional testimony and federal legislation. The work I've been a part of has received numerous awards, including a data-driven deep dive into how Colorado's fentanyl laws increased overdose deaths due to fears of prison time for calling 911, and an interactive story on the history of small towns and how you can take an international trip without leaving your state.

I love what I do. Whether it's diving down rabbit holes in legal documents, filing the perfect FOIA request, or building detailed maps to surface human rights issues, I thrive in the meticulous, detail-heavy work that makes complex stories click — on tight deadlines or over months.

In my free time, I'm usually escaping the concrete jungle of NYC for the mountains or trying to become fluent in a fifth language.
