State Politics Reporter
-
Jun 2017 - Jul 2018
Initially hired to cover local government, my reporting helped lead to the firing of Casper's police chief and the early retirement of the city manager. After being promoted to state politics reporter, I focused on the Wyoming Legislature and other statewide issues. I grew the Star-Tribune's audience for political coverage by creating the "307 Politics" sub-brand, with dedicated social media channels and a popular Politico-style weekly newsletter that grew to ≈ 20,000 subscribers.
