Read Full Bio →

I've been a reporter since 2003 and covered just about every beat from courts and cops to city hall and state government. Most recently I've become the digital editor for The White Mountain Independent in Show Low, Ariz. and the Payson Roundup in Payson, Ariz. where I manage the social media sites, create e-newsletters and keep the websites looking pretty for both papers.

What was your first job as a journalist?

I was a reporter at the Jefferson Gazette, a weekly in Ohio. I was reporter, photographer and copy editor.

Have you ever used a typewriter?

Yes.

How is social media changing news?

It's made the news cycle faster. At the same time, its also made the spread of misinformation faster and harder to correct.
