Started covering Missouri politics at 18. Now helping global decision makers understand American politics and political risk.
Launched PoliticMo at 18. Covered Joplin tornado, Todd Akin's Senate collapse, Ferguson. Contributed to NYT by 22 while at Mizzou.
Learned how power works when stakes are real.
Joined Morning Consult in 2016. Revealed patterns traditional political coverage missed. Observation became measurement. Reporting informed frameworks.
Now quantifying volatility to inform decisions by leaders who can't afford to guess. Built on Missouri grit, applied at global scale and driven by small-town empathy. Read more.
