@chrishipp15_ Congrats!

Excited to share that I'm heading downstate in a few months to join the New York Times 2025-26 fellowship class. I'll be on the National desk starting in June.

We’re still basically homeless a month after a hurricane sent a crane crashing into our ⁦@TB_Times⁩ building. But thanks to our ⁦@BostonGlobe⁩ friends,⁩ tonight we were well fed and our thirst quenched. Thanks ⁦@cristymsilva⁩ ⁦⁦⁦@GlobeJenPeter⁩ !

Cheers to our friends at the @sltrib who sponsored our first gathering tonight of the @tb_times newsroom at a local brewery 13 days after Milton sent a crane crashing into our building, ruining much of what we had inside. Nothing can stop this group’s resilient spirit.

“Florida has no laws on crane safety during high winds, not even for hurricanes. In fact, lawmakers banned cities and counties from passing rules themselves — at the urging of construction lobbyists.” Must-read by @ZackSampson @BetsBarnes @Colleen_Wright tampabay.com/hurricane/2024…

Speechless. We are at the entrance to our Tampa Bay Times office in downtown St. Petersburg. A crane is blocking the road, and several stories up, smoke billows out of the building from where it appears the crane fell Smell of gas in the air and you can hear alarms #MILTON

Florida's power outages show pretty clearly where Hurricane Debby is doing damage

Our @TB_Times team is providing round-the-clock updates on #TropicalStormDebby as the Tampa Bay region braces for heavy rain and high winds. Here’s a selection of stories, all currently available to read without a paywall. 🧵👇🏻 tampabay.com/hurricane/2024…

@jess_m_clark @KentuckyCIR Congrats!

I'm excited to announce my next move! I am officially a member of @KentuckyCIR! I'll be an investigative reporter focused on education. You won't see as much daily coverage from me because I'll be focusing on deeper dives with an accountability angle. Please keep sending tips!

This project from @SpataTimes @TimesDan and @clairemcneill spans more than 16,000 words and is worth every last one of them!!! Check out the Marked Man. tampabay.com/news/crime/202…

I'm thrilled to share that I'll be joining the @MiamiHerald's Tallahassee team as a state government reporter on Monday!! Hit me up.
