L.A. Explained Reporter (they/them)

Our region is one of endless experiences and needs, making it tough to find out what you want to know. So often, basic questions get overlooked and answers are bogged down by confusing jargon. I aim to help you make sense of big issues we’re facing, discover community and get resources in an easygoing way.

I started at LAist in 2020 and have stayed busy. I report for L.A. Explained and Queer LA, and I’m the lead author of our public-facing style guide, Dialogue. While I’ve lived in Los Angeles for more than a decade, I learn something new from people every day.
