My Background
I’m a fan of nonprofit journalism, and I fiercely believe that the public has a right to be informed. At ProPublica, I lead the team responsible for building a wide base of public support for our mission. Participation is key: Any amount makes you a member with us.
Before ProPublica, I spent a decade doing something similar at WBEZ, Chicago’s NPR-member station.
