Editor, Daily News
What I cover
I'm an editor on LAist's mighty and nimble daily news desk, leading coverage from bald eagles to local government.
My background
I worked in print and television in Los Angeles before arriving at LAist, where I help stories reach audiences on the radio and online. The different mediums have helped me grow into a scrappy editor and a jack-of-all-stories.
My goals
I’m always exploring how to make sense of the complicated and overwhelming but also diverse and wonderful aspects of living in Southern California. My goal is to empower, inform and inspire our audience.
