Biography

A journalist currently covering corporate lawsuits, the lawyers involved in them and the bottom lines of the firms that employ those lawyers, for The American Lawyer and its Am Law Daily and Litigation Daily websites. Prior to this, I was a senior reporter at the online legal news wire, Law360, where I covered labor and employment, international trade and a few other topics. Past experience includes covering the Massachusetts congressional delegation as part of a journalism fellowship based in Washington, D.C., and fact-checking for a national politics magazine. Before making my way into journalism, I spent some time working in public policy research and as a paralegal for a federal agency.
