@carolinewills03 You’re the best Caroline!!! I’m so so so excited for you.

Excited to share this summer I will be covering sports in the Triangle for the N&O! This is a dream come true opportunity, and I’m so excited to keep my roots in the Chapel Hill area a little longer. Send any Raleigh food recommendations my way!

Tomorrow is my last day as City & State editor at The Daily Tar Heel. What an honor and joy it's been. I wrote some words about it here :) dailytarheel.com/article/2025/0…

Public media is an invaluable resource to our communities—here's how a loss of federal funding could affect WUNC and other N.C. stations: wunc.org/2025-04-15/cpb…

Looks like he was right.

My newest piece for @DTHCityState about Carrboro’s lawsuit against Duke Energy Corporation. This one was great to write — seeing my hometown in national news has been crazy!!! Thanks @NCWARN & @CenterForBioDiv & the TOC Town Council for speaking with me!!! dailytarheel.com/article/2025/0…

BREAKING: The Town of Carrboro filed a lawsuit against Duke Energy over the company’s role in advancing climate change and delayed transition away from fossil fuels. N.C. WARN and the Center for Biological Diversity are advising the Town on the case. bit.ly/4eZmgn7

Weird election night in North Carolina. Trump won, as did Republican judges. But at the same time Democrats won every major executive branch race (governor, AG, superintendent of schools), the only competitive US House race, and even broke the GOP supermajority in the legislature

N.C. polls close at 7:30 p.m. Follow our live election coverage here! bit.ly/4faWgpR

@rana_cash It's pizza (and cookie) night here at The DTH, too!

Of course we have Election Night pizza 🍕!

I wrote all about our process and my editorial decisions in a column, go give it a read! And go vote (after you read the paper and take the quizzes, of course)! dailytarheel.com/article/2024/1…

From the beginning, I wanted our election coverage to reflect the efforts of our entire desk, not just the editors and a few senior writers. It’s truly a privilege to lead this desk, and I’m so proud of every single writer. They are the heartbeat of what we do.

So much dedication went into this project, and I’m so grateful to my assistant editors @Kathryn_DeHart and @sophbgli for, well, everything. The photo, design, engineering, data and audience teams all had a hand in this, and without them, it wouldn't have been possible.

We also made a 24-page voter guide with judicial candidate Q&As, enterprise stories and briefs about how to cast your ballot. Our design team also created profile cards for each candidate in one of the most impressive print design spreads I've ever seen.s3.amazonaws.com/snwceomedia/dt…

The incredibly talented @leodavidson23 created a quiz site that readers can use to find out which candidate they most strongly align with for every council of state race, as well as the NCGA and U.S. House contests that appear on the Orange County ballots. dailytarheel.com/article/2024/1…

Our @DTHCityState election preview content is finally out, after months of hard work. We put together a 24 page special edition, a voter quiz site where you can find out which N.C. candidates you align with and dozens of stories. Here’s everything we’ve been working on🧵
