Before starting here, I worked just about every job possible at the University Daily Kansan. I also worked for KJHK, where I helped develop the web site, had a weekly music show and managed underwriting. I've also interned at Al Jazeera English in Washington, D.C., and the Leavenworth Times.

I graduated from Piper High School in Kansas City, Kan., but also spent a lot of time (years — if all the trips were added up) in a small town on the North Sea in England.

I work evenings mainly, but am always interested in a good tip, so drop me a line if you have a story suggestion or event. You can find me on Twitter (and please do!) here.
