Biography
I write about the Supreme Court for The New York Times with a focus on the world of the court, including its role in politics and the lives of the justices.
I graduated from the U.C. Berkeley School of Law and worked as a public defender in Washington State. I earned my undergraduate degree in journalism from Northwestern University.
I came to The Times from The Marshall Project, where I was the lead reporter on a yearlong investigation into the injuries caused by police dog bites that won the 2021 Pulitzer Prize in National Reporting. I was a finalist in 2019 and 2021 for Harvard’s Goldsmith Prize for Investigative Reporting. I’ve also worked as a journalist for the Investigative Reporting Program at the University of California, Berkeley, the Center for Investigative Reporting and The Tampa Bay Times. From 2011 to 2012, I was a Henry Luce Scholar in Cambodia.
