Interview

How is social media changing news?

Social media rewards immediacy and reaction, but good storytelling needs context and trust. Qualities worth defending.

What does it mean to be a journalist?

To pay attention and ask why things matter.

What advice can you offer to aspiring journalists?

Chase curiosity. Genuine interests will always outlast the algorithm.

What's the worst pitch you ever got?

A PR rep once offered me an interview with a “fitness influencer who reads runes for stock predictions.” I admired the creativity.

When you're not at a computer, where are you most likely to be?

In a meadow, taking pictures of bugs most likely! Wandering through second-hand shops, collecting brass objects for my newly decorated house.

What's the most common misperception about your beat?

That it’s about fortune-telling. My work uses tarot as a storytelling framework, not a predictive tool.
