What I Cover
I report on voting access and processes, election security issues, threats to election officials and voters, election misinformation and voter disenfranchisement. I’m especially interested in changes to voting laws and rules under the Trump administration, and the influences behind them.
My Background
Before ProPublica, I covered voting, election administration and threats to democracy in Arizona for Votebeat.org. Prior to that, for more than a decade, I covered government and politics for news organizations in Maryland, Washington, D.C., and Arizona, including The Arizona Republic.
I’ve been focused on elections and voting issues since the 2020 election. I helped lead the Republic’s coverage of the “Stop the Steal” movement in Arizona, including revealing how companies hired for the partisan audit of Maricopa County’s 2020 ballots were connected to Donald Trump’s most-prominent allies. I was part of the team that wrote “Democracy in Doubt,” which won the 2021 Scripps Howard Award for Distinguished Service to the First Amendment.
I’m a former National Press Foundation Paul Miller Washington reporting fellow and City University of New York Ravitch fiscal reporting fellow. I graduated from Arizona State University’s Walter Cronkite School of Journalism and Mass Communication.
