Assistant news editorI’m the assistant news editor at LehighValleyNews.com who hails from West Texas. You may have heard my voice as WLVR’s former All Things Considered news anchor. I’ve spent more than a decade telling audio stories at public radio stations across the U.S., including KUT and KUTX in Austin; WNYC in New York; KCBX in California, and the Southern Foodways Alliance podcast Gravy. I’m a Columbia Journalism School alum with a passion for reporting on criminal justice, social justice, politics and LGBTQ+ issues. When I’m not helping run the newsroom, I love New Orleans Saints football, dance floors, barbecue, tasting new wines and trying out taco spots in the Lehigh Valley. I live in Easton with my sweet little dog, Tater, and I’m always on the hunt for my next vacation destination.
