Bio:

I'm a multimedia journalist who has produced stories for television, radio, and online news. I've reported on climate issues, California's High Speed Rail project, and on a variety of social, cultural and environmental issues.

Politics:

I am not registered with any particular party, and my political beliefs tend to be liberal. As a journalist, however, I believe that the prerequisites for fair and accurate reporting are an understanding of perspectives from different points of view along with a thorough investigation of matters from a wide spectrum of sources.

Religion:

I am spiritual, but not religious. However, I do respect the religious beliefs of others.

Local Hot-Button Issues:

The issue of development has been, and continues to be, polarizing. To a certain extent, development supports social and economic growth. But this growth should be managed in an intentional way that does not negatively impact the environment, natural resources, or quality of life.
