I cover the 2024 presidential campaign, down ballot races, and the investigations into former President Donald J. Trump.
I’m a New York City native and graduated from Sarah Lawrence College. My first reporting job was at the New York Post, where I started working as a clerk in 1996, followed by the New York Daily News and Politico, before joining The Times as a campaign reporter in 2015. I have covered five presidential elections, several governors’ races and New York City mayoral races. I covered Rudolph W. Giuliani’s second term at City Hall in New York, Hillary Clinton’s 2000 U.S. senate race, both of President Obama’s national campaigns, and the rebuilding at the World Trade Center site, among other topics.
I am also the author of “Confidence Man: The Making of Donald Trump and the Breaking of America.”
I was part of a team that won a Pulitzer Prize in 2018 for reporting on President Trump’s advisers and their connections to Russia. In 2021, I was part of a team that was a Pulitzer finalist for coverage of President Trump’s handling of the coronavirus.
Maintaining journalistic independence is important for us at The Times, which has an extensive ethics policy. I strive to provide a fair and accurate report on every topic I’m covering. I strive for transparency in the news report itself and the reporting process, while balancing that with the importance of ensuring that the sources of confidential, sensitive information are able to speak freely, particularly as relates to investigations.
I’d prefer to be contacted by email.
