Born and raised in Nebraska, I’ve politely chuckled at many jokes about becoming a Hawkeye. Today I was asked who I’m rooting for when the Hawks face the Huskers in the Sweet 16, and I gave the only correct answer #gohawks. I was called a “turncoat,” which takes the cake.

It has been such an amazing experience to be in Des Moines covering the start of the 2026 legislative session. I loved having access to be on the floor during Iowa Gov. Kim Reynolds’ last annual Condition of the State address! dailyiowan.com/2026/01/13/rey…

I wasn’t in D.C. last week to report, but I honestly couldn’t help myself. Reporting on “No Kings” day from the nation’s capital checked off a massive goal of mine that I didn’t think would happen until much much later into my career. Check out all coverage @TheDailyIowan
