I’m a Seattle-based journalist with a passion for local-level public interest journalism. Currently, I cover King County government and related affairs for Seattle Weekly. In this capacity, I’ve covered how opioid addicts have to travel hours across the county to get treatment and why a handful of undocumented immigrant youth who were separated from their families at the southern border under Trump’s “zero tolerance” immigration policy were confined in a Seattle shelter run by a local non-profit.
