Read my work
I have reported extensively on a variety of topics throughout New England, including politics, domestic violence, opioid addiction, crime, policing, housing and immigration. No matter the topic, I bring an accountability approach.
I won first place for Environmental Reporting in 2016 in the New England Newspaper & Press Association's Better Newspaper Awards for my story about emerging contaminants in Vermont drinking water. In 2018, I co-published an investigative series looking at the failures that left a woman dead at the hands of her partner 48 hours after calling for help. We won a Vermont Press Award for Best Local Story.
