I like to dig. 

I'm currently covering social services for New York Focus, an independent, non-profit newsroom dedicated to investigating power in the Empire State.

My work has appeared in dozens of national and local outlets such as The Associated Press, The Guardian, NPR, Vox, The Los Angeles Times, The Wall Street Journal, The Marshall Project, Al Jazeera and more.

For over a decade, I've used the power of public records and data analysis to illustrate systemic failures across the country. I've covered everything from the hazards of radioactive waste from fracking to corporate misinformation campaigns minimizing the dangers of asbestos and climate change.

My award-winning investigations on the environment and workers' rights have been cited by policymakers, political figures, academics, book authors and even comedians on satirical news programs. 

I've also delivered talks and tutorials to newsrooms and universities about how to effectively harness public records laws. (Fun fact: I've filed records requests in every U.S. state and territory and the District of Columbia).
