Four Brothers Islands, NY, where ocean birds stop as they migrate over Lake Champlain.

I’m a journalist based in Burlington, Vermont.

Currently, I’m an engagement producer at KFF Health News, where I work to share stories about health issues across different platforms. I worked as the science and health reporter at Vermont Public where I produced radio stories and wrote a newsletter called Out There. I’ve also been a reporter and producer in northern Michigan, New York City and Cape Cod, and taught audio production at the University of Vermont and to middle schoolers in White River Junction.

Other jobs include gardener, fact checker and science teacher. And once, I spent a summer tracking mountain goats for the U.S. Forest Service.

I’m a graduate of NYU’s Science, Health and Environmental Reporting Program and studied biology at Dartmouth College. My work has been featured on NPR, Here & Now and Science Friday, won national and regional Murrow Awards, a Hearken’s Champions of Curiosity Award, and was recognized at the New York Wild Film Festival and the Environmental Film Festival at Yale.
