I love stories that bring me to fascinating corners of the world, into unexpected encounters, and which taught me something new. I hope to tell stories that resonate and stay with listeners and readers, and perhaps even show them something new.

Embedded: The Black Gate


In the Xinjiang region of western China, the government has rounded up and detained hundreds of thousands of Uyghurs and other Muslim ethnic groups.

I was the lead reporter on a three-part series from Embedded, telling the story of one man’s search for his missing children. I also travel across Asia and dives into decades of history to uncover the massive Chinese surveillance of Uyghurs, getting exclusive interviews with the people suffering from that surveillance and the people upholding it – who sometimes are one and the same.
