Hi. After 19 years in journalism - most recently at the Seattle Post-Intelligencer -- I'm joining the Washington State Policy & Budget Center, as the Communications Manager. I'm looking foward to sharing with you all the excellent policy analysis the analysts here at the center do.

I wrote extensively about politics during my journalism career, covering such issues as welfare and health care reform as state government for The Seattle Times. I also covered City Hall and the monorail measure for the P-I. I also founded a news site, seattlepostglobe.org, with other former P-I journalists.
