Hello! I’m Amy.

I’m an investigative data reporter. Until November 2024, I was at Scripps News, where I helped write and report stories using datasets and code on a variety of topics, including public infrastructure, healthcare, and thoroughbred racing. You can check out more of my work here.

I was a part of the team that won a 2024 national Emmy in the “Outstanding Investigative News Coverage: Short Form” category for our investigation into the Flint water crisis 9 years in. A data analysis I prepared was a key part of the interview pressing the mayor of Flint on the lack of progress on the pipe replacement project.

Previously, I worked at MIT Sloan and the Golub Center for Finance and Policy and was a Civic Digital Fellow at the National Center for Health Statistics. I am a native Houstonian and hold a B.S. in mathematics from Duke University, where I received a full merit scholarship.

If you have questions, ideas, or common interests, please reach out at (my github username) at gmail.com. Or, you can find me on Twitter/X, LinkedIn, and Github.
