I hold a Masters of Science in Journalism with a specialization in investigative reporting from Northwestern's Medill School of Journalism. After graduating, I began a year-long investigative reporting fellowship with the Better Government Association, where I covered Illinois Medicaid. As an investigative reporter, I have covered everything from transgender rights in Kazakhstan to female homicides in Chicago.
