I’m a staff reporter for Defense One in Washington D.C. covering land warfare. I previously worked as a freelance war reporter in Ukraine. My work has appeared in The New Republic, Foreign Policy, Mother Jones, and Radio Liberty, among other places. I’ve delivered scoops on Ukrainian drone tech, exposed Russian war crimes, and done wide-ranging reporting on the cost of victory for Ukraine.
