I’m a Spokane-based journalist with a passion for local-level public interest journalism. I’ve covered attempts by state lawmakers to exempt themselves from public disclosure laws, how the Seattle Mariners threatened to not renew their lease at Safeco Field if they didn’t get $180 million in taxpayer funds,  and the detrimental impacts of cash bail on poor defendants in King County courts. Currently, I cover cops, courts, and county government for the Inlander alt-weekly as a staff writer.
