Senior Editor
Prison Journalism Project
I am a senior editor at Prison Journalism Project, a national nonprofit organization dedicated to training incarcerated writers in journalism. PJP's mission is to equip people inside with the tools of reporting and writing so they can tell their own stories. In my role, I work to ensure that the articles and essays we publish meet a high standard of quality and accuracy, and reach a wide audience through collaborations with local and national media organizations.
Previously, I interned at The Santiago Times, an English-language newspaper in Santiago, Chile, and served as the managing editor of
Seattle University's campus weekly. After college, I reported for various Seattle-based outlets, writing stories on politics, culture,
higher education and social justice. Eventually, I landed at Cascade PBS (formerly Crosscut), Washington state's largest independent news organization, where I served as associate opinion editor. After ten years in Seattle and one year in Oakland, I now live just outside Albuquerque, New Mexico, not far from where I grew up.
