I am an editorial staffer in the Opinion department of the New York Times.

Previously, I was a freelance reporter. My work has appeared in, among other publications, the New York Times, the Los Angeles Times, Mother Jones, The Guardian, The Intercept, Vice, The American Prospect and Jewish Currents, where I am a contributing writer. My reporting has been cited by numerous scholarly journals, in advocacy letters to President Joe Biden, and by the Congressional Research Service.

I occasionally fact-check books and documentaries. From 2020 to 2022, I was a researcher at UNC–Chapel Hill, where I contributed research for the New York Times columnist Zeynep Tufekci. I was a 2020 recipient of a reporting award from the Center for Media, Crime & Justice at the City University of New York.

I graduated from The College of Wooster, in Ohio, with a bachelor’s in philosophy. Before becoming a reporter, I taught eighth-grade English in Texas, conducted ethnographic research on evictions in Vermont, and volunteered with a refugee-aid organization in Bosnia and Herzegovina.
