I’m a journalist based in New York City. I’m currently the News & Opinion Editor at City & State, a weekly magazine covering New York politics.

I’m an expert on the Democratic Socialists of America and have reported extensively on the growth of leftist politics in the U.S.

I previously worked for New York Focus, Politico and Freedom of the Press Foundation, where I launched the U.S. Press Freedom Tracker. My reporting and commentary have also appeared in New York magazine, Columbia Journalism Review, New York Observer and Jacobin.
