1/ I started my job as  @MotherJones’ new COO a few weeks before the pandemic shut down most of the Bay Area.
                        
                        
                        
                        
                                                
                    
                    
                                    
                    
                        
                        
                        2/ To be honest, I rarely write about myself. Now that I’ve caught my breath, I wanted to introduce myself to our readers. So I wrote this letter. https://bit.ly/31iUVKc ">https://bit.ly/31iUVKc&q...
                        
                                                
                        
                        
                        
                                                
                    
                    
                                    
                    
                        
                        
                        3/ It got me thinking about why I became a reporter and what that means now that I’m the COO. I talked about what it’s like for a Detroit kid, who grew up to be a journalist, to help lead a news organization right now.
                        
                        
                        
                        
                                                
                        
                                                
                    
                    
                                    
                    
                        
                        
                        4/I’m excited about rethinking what it means to build a diverse, resilient investigative news nonprofit.
                        
                        
                        
                        
                                                
                        
                                                
                    
                    
                                    
                    
                        
                        
                        5/ None of this is possible without  @MotherJones readers. I can’t wait to learn more about why you read Mother Jones (and the link gives you a way let me know what’s on your mind).  https://bit.ly/31iUVKc ">https://bit.ly/31iUVKc&q...
