I am a general assignment agricultural reporter who covers everything from food to land, using multiple elements of media. I prioritize stories that amplify the power of people.
As an ag reporter, I've covered the opioid crisis, herding dogs, trade wars, snow-collapsed barns, COVID-19 pandemic, immigrant farmers, tree-range chickens, farmland transition, milking robots, world record pumpkins, cannabis pasteurization, cranberry country and horseradish kings.
I report out of northeast Rochester, Minnesota, where I live with my wife, Kara, and our polite cat, Zena. Email me at [email protected]
