I'm an investigative reporter and host of KPCC's podcast "Repeat." For the past couple of years, my reporting has focused on the justice system and police shootings.
I first joined KPCC in 2013 as an education reporter covering Los Angeles Unified School District. My investigation into the district's problem-plagued effort to equip every student with an iPad contributed to the demise of the program, resignation of the superintendent and the launch of an FBI investigation.
Right now, I'm digging into stories that explain how who you are and where you live affects what kind of justice you get in Southern California. Have a question about that? Ask me below.
