What I Covered
I covered the ways people get hurt when powerful entities — corporations, banks, government agencies — operate without guardrails. As the Trump administration removes more of these protections, I’ll be interested in the effects on the ground.
My Background
I strongly believe that the clearest picture of a problem comes from the people living through it. In all my reporting, I take a ground-up approach and focus first on the accounts of those in harm’s way.
Before joining ProPublica, I spent seven years at Reveal from The Center for Investigative Reporting. There, I was part of a team that earned a Pulitzer finalist nod for exposing the high rate of worker injuries at Amazon warehouses.
At ProPublica, I’ve exposed how a prominent house-flipping company trained its franchisees to zero in on homeowners’ desperation. I’ve covered the federal government’s sluggish response to New Mexico’s largest wildfire. And I’ve investigated how a leading auto lender saddled borrowers with unmanageable debt.
An important part of my job is arming consumers with information to protect themselves. That’s why I’ve written about the safest ways to sell your home, the challenges of rebuilding after a natural disaster and the hidden perils of car loan deferments.
