On the first day of the United Auto Workers strike, I spent the day in Toledo, Ohio, covering the story for The New York Times. For a good chunk of the day, one of my first images from the coverage was at the top of the outlet’s website.

In the lead-up to and during the 2022 midterm elections, I went on assignment to cover political stories in West Michigan for The Washington Post. This post showcases the spectrum of imagery from the handful of assignments and thoughts on the experience.
