I'm the Executive Editor of Covering Climate Now, a global journalism collaboration dedicated to elevating the caliber and prominence of climate coverage. Prior to CCNow, I served as Executive Digital Editor at The Nation, where I’m a contributing editor.

I was the co-founder and Editorial Director of The War Horse and, earlier, founding Publisher of The Big Roundtable — renamed The Delacorte Review in 2018 after being acquired by Columbia's Graduate School of Journalism.

From 2013 to 2016, I served as the digital journalist for a multiplatform documentary project called The Truth About Trees, which was supported by a major grant from the National Science Foundation.

As a research fellow at the Tow Center for Digital Journalism at Columbia University’s Graduate School of Journalism, I reported “All the Space in the World: The Future of Digital Longform Project,” a five-part piece about journalism’s digital revolution.

I proudly got my start in journalism at UC Berkeley's award-winning, independent student paper, The Daily Californian, where I worked as a staff photographer, helmed the photo desk as editor, and contributed to the sports and news desks. I’m a Washington, D.C., native, and a graduate of UC Berkeley and Columbia University’s Graduate School of Journalism, where I later taught as adjunct faculty.
