I’m a freelance writer reporting largely on climate science, natural disasters and the energy industry. I’m currently an Alicia Patterson Fellow with the Fund for Investigative Journalism. Previously, I was a fellow on The New York Times climate desk and a reporter for VTDigger.
My work can be found in The Atlantic, Grist, The Guardian, High Country News, National Geographic, The New York Times, Oxford American, Rolling Stone and The Washington Post, among others. I was born in Ontario, Canada and raised in Kentucky.
