What I Do

I write about how law enforcement investigates crime in Philly's collar counties — Bucks, Chester, Delaware, and Montgomery — and tell the stories of the people affected by it.

My Background

Before joining The Inquirer, I worked as a columnist and metro reporter at the Hartford Courant and an overnight crime reporter for the Philadelphia Daily News. Prior to journalism, I worked odd jobs including a summer camp concession stand manager, writing tutor, and outdoor-equipment salesman.

I graduated from La Salle University with a degree in communication. I now live in Philadelphia, but my heart will always be in my native Pocono Mountains.
