Interview
How is social media changing news?
The pressure for clicks can impact the quality, but we will always have good journalism if newsrooms foster diverse and dedicated talent.
What tools and software do you use to do your job?
G Suite, Otter, and Reaper if I'm editing podcasts.
What's your favorite social network?
TikTok.
Who do you wish followed you?
Joe Pera.
What story are you most proud of writing or working on?
An upcoming story about Hollywood's number one harpist. It was a dream to research 60 years of American music history.
What's your favorite drink?
I want to say something classy and not that banana-flavoured antibiotic they used to dish out to kids in the 90s.
When you're not at a computer, where are you most likely to be?
At my microphone.
