Claim your profileAs the founder and editor of The Sprawl, a crowdfunded Calgary news outlet, I wear many hats: publisher, editor, writer, reporter, podcaster, marketer, fundraiser... the list goes on. In all of it, I am working to provide Calgarians with thoughtful, in-depth journalism on municipal issues.I've been covering municipal issues in Calgary for more than two decades, and launched The Sprawl in 2017 to help fill the ever-widening gaps in the city's media landscape. Prior to starting The Sprawl, I was a staff writer for Fast Forward Weekly, a columnist for the Calgary Herald and Metro, and a radio reporter for CBC. I also freelanced for publications including Canadian Geographic, Monocle, Swerve and Alberta Views.In 2023, The Sprawl was named Alberta Magazine of the Year by the Alberta Magazine Publishers Association.
