I've also been honored and privileged to cover the Obama administration. I learned a lot about how to cover our national government.

I came in covering "don't ask, don't tell" repeal, which took me to Congress and the Pentagon, then DOMA, which took me to the courts.

I also covered the broader marriage equality movement and the growing Title VII / Title IX / LGBT rights ~story~ and ENDA and more.

Eventually, I became the legal editor at BuzzFeed News and expanded my work, covering SCOTUS more broadly and focusing on the death penalty.

I've also been able to spend time on some other criminal justice areas and report on some election law issues as well.

I've had countless aggressive stories asking questions of this administration that they didn't want me asking. I'm most proud of that work.

Now, as we prepare for a new president, I'll take what I've learned and put it to use as best I can in pursuit of the important stories.
