Summary

I'm a journalist with experience covering municipal politics, the environment and social justice issues.

In addition to conducting hard-hitting interviews for investigative stories, I also write compelling features and shoot photos with frontpage quality.

I am looking to diversify my digital story telling skills and leverage my strength as a researcher so I can explore additional fields in the writing sector.
