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 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.
