What I Covered
I covered a range of stories that reflect the impact of social issues on individuals and communities.
My Background
As an investigative photojournalist, I document in-depth stories through photography that help contextualize visual evidence and humanize complex historical and policy-driven narratives. Based in Southern California, I explore photo-driven projects locally and throughout the United States.
Before joining ProPublica, I was a staff photojournalist at the Detroit Free Press. I concentrated on topics like housing insecurity, disability and social justice issues affecting Black and brown communities. I also worked as a photography fellow for The New York Times’ Washington, D.C., bureau, where I captured a poignant moment from the confirmation hearings of Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson that garnered worldwide attention.
My work has received several notable awards, including the General News Award of Excellence from Pictures of the Year International and Time’s Top 10 Photos of the Year. The Library of Congress acquired a series of my photos in 2020. In 2022, I became the first-ever photojournalist honored by the National Association of Black Journalists as Emerging Journalist of the Year.
