I’m a bilingual investigative journalist and writer based in Chicago. I’m currently an immigration reporter at Chicago Public Media, reporting for the Chicago Sun-Times and WBEZ.

Previously, I was the immigration reporter and project editor at South Side Weekly, where I covered immigration enforcement, the legal system, and issues affecting immigrant communities.

I’ve also reported on immigration and mental health for MindSite News and palabra, worked as a global health misinformation writer and fact-checker for a UNICEF initiative with Public Good Projects, and covered breaking news and politics as a digital producer at Univision Chicago.

My work has appeared in The Guardian, Reveal, Crain’s Chicago Business, and other outlets.

I was a 2019 City Bureau Civic Reporting Fellow and studied literature and philosophy.
