Finally published my investigation into Nexus' many court battles over their business practices and allegations of criminal behavior. Apologies to the station for the PACER bill this quarter! wmra.org/2023-07-27/cha…

After two months of running around our broadcast region down rivers and up hollers, I'm so excited to lead y'all on a tour of some magnificent trees. Part 1 airs this evening on WMRA, part 2 coming tomorrow. wmra.org/2023-07-17/the…

Taco truck owners, carnival operators, veterans, country musicians, and more came together to pull off Staunton's Happy Birthday America celebration. wmra.org/2023-07-05/sta…

Local fire departments (at least Hburg and Staunton) are buying body armor for if/when they are called to violent incidents like shootings. A somber reality but great interviews with two deputy chiefs. wmra.org/2023-06-19/fir…

@WHSVkayla Happened to me too -- took several calls and emails to both my current and previous municipal offices, but I was finally able to get my receipt for having paid at the new location sent to the old.

Does anyone understand personal property tax? Or are we just all paying what they tell us to and pretending we know what's going on? My situation: I'm still getting billed from my old address, but I've told them a few times I've moved. Idk what to do. I call, they can't help me?

Late post about the Amazon fulfillment center that opened in Fishersville. I got to ask one of the corporation's VP's about how they're addressing the high rates of serious injuries at Amazon warehouses. wmra.org/2023-05-22/ama…

Neat local history emerging in Cville. Apparently the trendy vape of the 18th-early 19th century for free African Americans around here was a soapstone pipe. wmra.org/2023-05-09/arc…

A 1951 student strike in Farmville became one of five cases rolled up in Brown v. Board. Rockingham County kids teach one another this history through an immersive field trip. wmra.org/2023-04-27/stu…

This sweet family told me about the arduous, four-year adoption process they went through, which has thankfully concluded in a happy home for four siblings. It illustrates the cost of "debilitating" staff turnover at child welfare agencies. wmra.org/2023-04-25/how…

Part 2/2: wmra.org/2023-04-19/get…

Story 1/2 on the substance use and recovery landscape in Winchester. This reporting included some really moving wisdom from people who have gotten sober. wmra.org/2023-04-19/dru…

I learned a lot about skateparks this week, too. wmra.org/2023-04-12/the…

@blanip Sorry you're going through that❤️

Wanna hear a lot -- perhaps, *too much* detail about a proposed solar facility in Staunton, and the solar utility scene across the state? wmra.org/2023-04-10/lar…

Love when I'm trying to understand a state regulatory issue (like shared solar programs) and both Cardinal News and Virginia Mercury have already reported on it 🙌
