What does it mean to be a journalist?
Compassion for the importance of navigating and sharing stories that readers would otherwise never know.
How do you prefer to be pitched on stories?
I prefer to be pitched by e-mail and while a lengthy pitch isn't necessary, a couple of paragraphs often helps a lot.
What story are you most proud of writing or working on?
I'm most proud of my piece on the treatment of so-called "enemy aliens" with disabilities at the Walter E. Fernald State School during WWII.
What's your favorite drink?
Not water. There's an old W.C. Fields line about water.
