Claim your profileAn investigative data journalist, I have been an editor at The Marshall Project — the nonpartisan, nonprofit, investigative news organization dedicated to covering crime and justice in the U.S. — since its inception more than a decade ago. I enjoy leading ambitious, highly collaborative reporting projects that expose how our governments and the powerful fail us. I love working on accountability stories with other journalists, and have edited stories that have been co-published with dozens of news outlets over the years. I manage The Marshall Project's coverage of prisons, jails and the death penalty. I also report and write myself, and I have a long track-record of producing strong data stories. A news leader, I helped to build and launch three newsrooms from the ground up, and I have managed interdisciplinary teams of visual journalists, designers, developers and data journalists. I regularly teach investigative and data reporting skills, passing along my own hard-earned knowledge and practices to early-career journalists and students.
