About Me
I am a news journalist based in Denver, Colorado, currently working as a staff writer at a magazine called Westword.
My beat sits at the intersection of local politics, housing, and culture — the slow-moving stories that decide what a city becomes. I work in long-form features, breaking news, and field photography, and I'm drawn to reporting that requires showing up in person.
