I’m a journalist from Chicago. Currently, I’m the investigations editor at South Side Weekly. Previously, I’ve been the news editor at The TRiiBE and at the Chicago Reader.

My work has also appeared in Block Club Chicago, In These Times, Slate, Scientific American, Smithsonian Magazine, The Trace, WIRED and elsewhere. Before becoming a journalist, I worked in bookstores, restaurants, retail shops, painting crews, laboratories, and (briefly) a planetarium.
