I’m a journalist reporting on people, places and policies in the West.
I’m a reporter and producer at KHOL, Jackson Hole’s community radio station, where I focus on the historic housing crisis and massive economic inequality, efforts to conserve the most intact ecosystem in the lower 48, and women’s and LGBTQ+ people’s rights.
My work has appeared in The Atlantic, High Country News, Portland Monthly and NBC stations across the country. I’ve also fact-checked features for the Vox Media Company, The Guardian, Harper’s Magazine and Undark.
I hail from Bend, Oregon, where I found my love for the outdoors. In my free time you can find me scaling rock walls or backpacking in the mountains.
