I'm currently Knight's interim Online Community Manager, which means I manage Pulse and other projects for the Foundation. I just completed a year-long research fellowship with the Reynolds Journalism Institute at the University of Missouri. Since 2005, I’ve been the deputy Web editor of the Minneapolis Star Tribune. Before that, I was the first online reporter/producer at the Fresno Bee, and a Naughton Fellow for Online Reporting and Writing at the Poynter Institute. I now sit on Poynter’s National Advisory Board. I graduated from Harvard in 2002 with an honors degree in English.
