I’ve reported on homelessness and behavioral health for more than a decade, starting at a very small newspaper on the eastern coast of Michigan and then at a mid-sized paper in Palm Springs, California before The Oregonian lured me to Portland, Oregon, where I found home. I now work remotely as an investigative reporter, still focused on homelessness and behavioral health, on the national team for Lee Enterprises. I spend my free time binging TV with my mastiff/lab mix and fostering other rescue pups, and taking lots of trips back to Detroit to visit family.
