I have the opportunity to work on a variety of topics as an investigative reporter. I have written about deadly auto-safety defects and negligent government regulators, Wall Street’s push into emergency services and water utilities, dangerously understaffed prisons, environmental failures, elections, gun deaths, the coronavirus pandemic, the war in Ukraine and more.
I generally combine traditional investigative reporting techniques — which can involve dozens of interviews and public records requests, as well as hundreds of pages of documents — with data journalism skills. One of my specialties is designing and building large, structured databases from complicated, unstructured reporting.
My Background
I joined The Times in 2013 as a reporter for the Business section. Before that, I worked at Bloomberg News, where I reported on government contracting.
As part of The Times’s effort to cover the Covid pandemic, I helped lead a group of journalists in collecting and analyzing Covid-19 and vaccine data, powering dozens of stories across the newsroom. For this work, I was part of a team that won the 2021 Pulitzer Prize for Public Service, as well as the 2020 Philip Meyer Journalism award. In 2023, I was part of a team that won the Pulitzer Prize in International Reporting for coverage of the war in Ukraine.
I graduated from Princeton and earned a master’s degree at the University of Oxford. I grew up on the border of Washington and Idaho, in the small town of Pullman, Wash.
Journalistic Ethics
As a Times journalist, I share the values and adhere to the standards of integrity outlined in The Times’s Ethical Journalism Handbook.

A New York Times analysis shows that thousands of public employees in every state are subject to federal, state or city vaccine mandates — but these requirements have not provided a significant boost to overall vaccination rates.
The main reason for the discrepancies is that state and county data does not always properly link the record of people’s booster shots to their initial vaccinations.
