@alisonsald @seattletimes @dallasnews We will miss you! Congratulations on this next big step.

1/ Today I published a story I’ve been wanting to do ever since I landed on the @seattletimes investigative team (@STWatchdog). It’s a bit of an odd one with an interesting backstory, so I ask you to bear with me and read through this *thread*.

Breaking down the basics of the proposed King County Crisis Care Centers levy, including: 🟣 how the system would operate 🟣 how the levy would differ from existing funding sources 🟣 where $ would go 🟣 timeline of plans seattletimes.com/seattle-news/m… Graphics via @vizscience @fmina

In today’s @seattletimes - get your @SeattleKraken playoff preview! I always love illustrating hockey - thanks again to @richboudet for having me on board. #seattlekraken #kraken #nhlplayoffs #StanleyCupPlayoffs

ICYMI: Voters in King County will soon have the chance to decide if the county should build more mental health crisis centers. This weekend, we took a historical look at why the number of mental health beds here has halved in the past few decades: seattletimes.com/seattle-news/m…

It was a privilege to work with reporter @HannahFurfaro on this #illo + #dataviz about declining #mentalhealth beds. El Rey looked like a caring, welcoming place at one time—notice leaf motifs around the now caged door. Some residents had nowhere to go. bit.ly/3YiUk5z

Our reporting team traveled to a remote forest off the west side of Vancouver Island to witness an Indigenous-led effort to establish salmon parks. The fruits of this movement could have an impact 500 years from now. Read more: st.news/salmonparks

Such a great job with an excellent team.

If you could literally rewrite history what would you change? @seattletimes #newsroom would change a lot on how we’d report the 1942 Executive Order 9066 - incarcerating Japanese Americans today. Examined our old A1 page w/ @CPLHouse projects.seattletimes.com/2022/a1-revisi…

Two 2021 @SeaTimesSports covers earned @SND awards this weekend: UW football preview with a Gabriel Camapnario (@seattlesketcher) illustration/@richboudet designer, and the Seattle Kraken preview with a @JenniferLuxton illustration/design assist from me. Such a talented team.

Safety of WA school buildings depends on geography. Rich school districts can raise $$ for repairs more easily than poor ones. “It’s a civil-rights issue” schools chief told @SandiDoughton & I in 2016 for this seismic safety investigation: seattletimes.com/seattle-news/t…
