I took a buyout at the LA Times a few weeks ago. It was a wild five-year ride, and I'm going to miss working with the LAT's incredible journalists (and the L.A. Times Guild 🦅 crew ✊) I've got some projects in the works, but freelance assignments and job leads appreciated!

Some career news! I'm now the Star Tribune's first community engagement director. Excited to start reaching out to communities around the state and to see more of their voices in our Opinion section.

Happy World Refugee Day! #WorldRefugeeDay #WithRefugees

Ethiopian Airlines kicked out a passenger on my flight because a minister took her seat. They didn’t apologize and they eventually forcefully offloaded her screaming. The minister did nothing. Disgraceful

To all my fellow journalists out there, good luck today, and in the long days and weeks ahead. You've got this💪🏽

This is a horrifying and shocking act of violence. My thoughts are with Brian Thompson’s family and loved ones and all those working at United Healthcare in Minnesota. startribune.com/brian-thompson…
