Interview
What does it mean to be a journalist?
Being a journalist means being a willing and active listener. Every single person has a story to tell, and it's our job to listen!
What story are you most proud of writing or working on?
My victim profiles for The Kansas City Star. It makes me proud to have aided in restructuring breaking news content.
When you're not at a computer, where are you most likely to be?
A coffee shop or any other local business. I love being involved in whatever community I'm covering and interacting with new people!
What's the most common misperception about your beat?
Breaking news isn't just covering crime. At its core, the beat is about covering the things your community cares about most.
