Welcome!

Picture
I'm a reporter at WFAE in Charlotte, N.C. I was most recently a Kroc fellow (August 2011-'12) reporting, writing, editing, blogging and producing for NPR in Washington, D.C.  This included a member station rotation at WLRN in Miami, FL at The Miami Herald newsroom. I previously interned at The Star Tribune, Sports Illustrated, Newsweek and The Star-Ledger. I graduated from Princeton's Class of 2011, where I was executive editor for multimedia for The Daily Princetonian. I'm all about old-school journalism, but I'm also addicted to social media (see: Twitter, Tumblr, Facebook).
