I report and edit comics at Insider. I work with a number of incredibly talented artists and writers to tell true stories about our world in an innovative digital comics webtoon format. I serve as the editor on the project, and assist in reporting. In 2022, our comic I Escaped A Chinese Internment Camp was awarded with the Pulitzer Prize for Illustrated Reporting and Commentary.
