About

With more than a dozen years in journalism and media, I've developed a deep understanding of California’s science and policy issues and cultivated a talent for producing engaging stories. I have dedicated my career to unpacking complex issues and untangling the politics behind them.At Agri-Pulse—the nation’s leading news source for farm policy—I have managed our California bureau for more than five years, diving into investigations on the governor, legislation and regulations and routinely scooping our competition. This role has honed my ability to deliver in-depth features, breaking news reporting and insider perspectives through our daily California newsletter. My work is more than just reporting on hearings; it's about making policy accessible and engaging and holding government accountable.To ensure the right message gets to the right audience, I tap into the latest tech and content strategy tools, creating deeper engagement for existing readers while expanding our reach.
