I am a correspondent for High Country News and an independent journalist. I cover water, land, climate, the energy transition, labor and communities across the West. 

 

My work appears in High Country News, Sierra Magazine, The Salt Lake Tribune, Salt Lake City Weekly, Undark and more. I'm a co-producer of the podcast and multimedia storytelling project Stay Salty: Lakefacing Stories and co-editor of the anthology New World Coming: Frontline Voices on Pandemics, Uprisings, and Climate Crisis. 

 

I received my MA in Environmental Humanities from the University of Utah, where I researched the role of story in the just transition movement in the Southwest. Before that, I studied environmental policy at Colorado College and researched land and water issues with the College's State of the Rockies Project.​

 

When not writing or reporting, I like to garden, ride my bike and run rivers with my partner, Lauren. I live in Salt Lake City, Utah.
