Interview
What does it mean to be a journalist?
Learning, every day, mainly by challenging assumptions—yours and everyone else's—and providing insight and perspective on any one issue.
When's the best time to pitch you?
In the last half of each month. Breaking news tips are welcome always.
What's the worst pitch you ever got?
Vague pitches that don't cater to the material that we cover.
Aside from your own, what's your favorite publication to read?
I'm a huge fan of the explainers. I'm a big believer that every issue should be explained with an emphasis on detail and context.
What's the most common misperception about your beat?
Can't answer fairly in the 140 characters you've provided. But essentially, energy and environment are not competing interests.
