Local News

Every community deserves local news that is fair, representative, comprehensive and clear -- my work from Day 1 has been motivated from a desire to unburden overworked newsrooms and contribute essential news to the public.

COVID-19 Reporting

In March, 2020, when the nation was on the eve of the COVID-19 pandemic lock down, I contacted my hometown newspaper, GOOD Morning Wilton, and asked where do you need me.

The next six months I published over 100 stories, many focused on COVID-19 and it's impact on schools, local businesses, local sports and community spirit, speaking to teachers, nurses, parents, students, business owners, hair dressers and more. To date it is my most rewarding reporting done.
