A life update: I have begun a new career path as a full-time freelance photographer and videographer following nearly 3 years as a multimedia specialist @UNOmaha and 14 years as a staff photojournalist @OWHpictures. I look forward to future stories, wherever they may lead.

We would also call this the @RebeccaGratz special.

A Nebraska lawmaker told a fellow Omaha mother she “belongs in a straitjacket” for paying childcare costs. Same issue five ago when I wrote this. This is a huge economic issue facing families... and more expensive than the property taxes we hear so much about.

Every week, NE Gov. Pete Ricketts receives a detailed report from the WH covid task force. Along with stats, it includes state-specific recommendations for fighting the virus. Neither the White House nor governor have opted to share these publicly.
So I put in a records request.

Cutting local news is a threat to national security. Allowing private platforms (like this one, sorry) to be our only source of news is a fundamental mistake & overlooks the role that community expertise plays in keeping us safe and providing checks on government. Alarm sounded👇🏻
