I am a video and multimedia journalist based in Doha, Qatar. I am currently an assistant professor with Northwestern's Medill School of Journalism in Qatar. Outside of teaching, I am a freelance video journalist for Time.com, Slate.com & NPR's Hearing Voices as well as a member of The Compelling Image - an online school of photography and videography. Prior to joining Northwestern, I worked as a video and multimedia journalist for the Chicago Tribune were I wrote, produced, shot and edited video and multimedia content for the paper's website and broadcast partners. In addition, I wrote for the Chicago Tribune Sunday Magazine, Books, National and Perspective sections.

Into the Arctic:

Take a journey into the Arctic and explore for yourself its natural wonders, the threat of the encroaching oil industry, and follow the struggle to Save the Arctic. The Arctic is under pressure from oil companies seeking to exploit its fossil resources. They see the melting of the sea ice, not as a warning, but as a business opportunity.

Out of Sight, Out of Mind: A visualization of drone strikes in Pakistan since 2004

Out of Sight, Out of Mind: A visualization of drone strikes in Pakistan since 2004:

Since 2004, the US has been practicing in a new kind of clandestine military operation. The justification for using drones to take out enemy targets is appealing because it removes the risk of losing American military, it?s much cheaper than deploying soldiers, it?s politically much easier to maneuver (i.e. flying a drone within Pakistan vs. sending troops) and it keeps the world in the dark about what is actually happening. It takes the conflict out of sight, out of mind. The success rate is extremely low and the cost on civilian lives and the general well-being of the population is very high. This project helps to bring light on the topic of drones. Not to speak for or against, but to inform and to allow you to see for yourself whether you can support drone usage or not.

The interactive infographic here charts these shifts, using data on median household income, from the U.S. Census Bureau, for census tracts with subway stations.�
