Biography

Freelance Journalist in Chicago. I was trained by the civic news labs in Chicago that are seeking to restructure the industry on their own terms. In the last year I have covered dozens of government meetings across the city on numerous topics. I've been assigned to cover breaking news, and have broke news. I've developed a beat covering the cannabis industry while remaining available to jump on anything that's assigned. Able to write on a deadline, or communicate through live-tweeting.
