My passion for storytelling has taken me all over the world - from the top of Mt St Helens to the epicenter of a nuclear disaster in Japan. I have more than a decade of experience reporting, both domestically and internationally. Most recently, I worked as a Tokyo-based correspondent for ABC News, covering everything from the tsunami and Fukushima nuclear disaster, to the conflict on the Korean peninsula. Prior to my time in Asia, I spent 5 years in Seattle, as a general assignment reporter. While my background is in television, I absolutely love working across platforms, filing stories for radio, digital, and print. I often work as a "one-man-band", shooting on a Canon 5D, and working with a Zoom H4 recorder. My work has been featured on ESPN, the BBC, Public Radio International, The Wall Street Journal, Al Jazeera America, CNN, and NHK.
