I exited the University of Virginia in 1994 skilled in various forms of writing and on a mission to get to the bottom of things. A freelance writer and part-time newspaper reporter while still in school, I became a full-time journalist upon...

Growing up on a small farm in Central Iowa, I learned the importance of hard work, respecting my elders, and contributing locally.
