I’m a local reporter for Axios, where I have co-written the company’s Austin newsletter since it launched in 2021. I’m also a lecturer at the University of Texas, where I teach a course on newsletter writing for journalists.

I previously covered Texas politics for the Austin American-Statesman. Before that, I reported on technology and business for the paper.

My work has been featured in the Washington Post, USA Today, Dallas Morning News, Houston Chronicle, Texas Tribune and more. I spent a year as a reporting fellow for the Dallas Morning News in Washington, D.C., where I covered the Texas congressional delegation. 

Much of my focus as a journalist has been on politics and enterprise reporting. Before reporting from D.C., I covered two state legislative sessions from Hearst’s Austin bureau.
