Interview
Have you ever used a typewriter?
Yes.
Who's your favorite fictional journalist?
Clark Kent, obviously.
How do you prefer to be pitched on stories?
Email is perfect. Submitting a detailed pitch with potential sources, or completed article manuscripts is the best way to get a quick reply.
What's your favorite social network?
Twitter
Did you work for your high school newspaper? If so, what did you do there?
I did. I was the lead sports writer and features writer. I also did a fair amount of copyediting.
What story are you most proud of writing or working on?
Whatever my latest news story is, but three stand out in particular: concussions in HS football, Nate Silver recap, and government shutdown.
When's the best time to pitch you?
Business hours work best, but if it's in my email inbox, I'll definitely get back to you by the end of the next business day.
