What I Cover

I am an investigative journalist, reporting on big tech’s maneuvers in Washington, D.C. I have been reporting on Elon Musk’s efforts to reshape government in the Trump era, and I am interested in tips about how tech and business interests — from AI companies to crypto firms — seek power and influence.

My Background

I have been reporting on technology for over a decade. My journalism is regularly cited by lawmakers and regulators and has helped spur legislation and regulatory overhauls.

Before ProPublica, I spent four years at the Thomson Reuters Foundation, investigating some of the biggest technology firms in the world, including Amazon, Meta and Uber.

I joined ProPublica’s Washington bureau at the start of the second Trump administration and have been tracking Elon Musk’s “Department of Government Efficiency” — who works for it, how it’s funded and how it’s overhauling the government.

I plan to continue covering the intersection of the Trump administration and Silicon Valley.

My work relies upon mutual trust and the confidence of sources, who are often taking risks to help bring important matters of public interest to light. I take the protection of sources seriously, and I welcome questions about the reporting process.
