As a breaking news reporter, I primarily cover crime and courts in southeastern Connecticut, but I also report on politics, health care and social justice issues. In addition to my beat, I am the cohost of the investigative true crime podcast Looking for the Todt Family. I am passionate about in-depth crime coverage and believe in the power of investigative journalism. I am a Connecticut native who returned to my home state to join the team at The Day.
