Humbled & honored for induction into the California HS FB Hall of Fame for years of media contribution. I didn’t block or tackle but covered a ton of it for @sacbee_news since 1989. Just now warming up. Great gig. Great teams, players, coaches in the @cifsjs and @CIFState

DeMar DeRozan says it hasn't taken long to build chemistry with De'Aaron Fox. “I think the chemistry is there. It’s with no effort, honestly. It’s just a feel. Not much needs to be said. It’s understood from both sides and we just read the game.” sacbee.com/sports/nba/sac…

After Shawn Jordan was hit by a car and killed on a road with no sidewalk, I wrote a story. Two days later, I got an email with the subject "Regarding the young man killed" and found out he wasn't the first teen to die there.

At Saturday's @CNPAservices California Journalism Awards, "The Final Fall" earned 1st place in in-depth reporting for @sacbee_news' circulation division and the open division (all circulation sizes). Many colleagues also honored across array of categories: sacbee.com/news/local/art…

I spent months along w/ @bystephenhobbs and *many* other talented @sacbee_news colleagues on this investigation, "The Final Fall": At least 28 people have died skydiving at the Parachute Center in Northern CA. How is it still in business? sacbee.com/news/investiga…



Excited to learn this week that "The Final Fall" was recognized for excellence in Non-Deadline Reporting in @spj_tweets' 2023 Sigma Delta Chi journalism #SDXAwards. I, @bystephenhobbs and many other @sacbee_news colleagues worked very hard on this.

In my first two weeks on breaking news and Equity Lab at @sacbee_news, I've gotten to report on cannabis consumption coming to the State Fair, a SWAT standoff, and the equity impacts of recreation fees. I'll be here through August, so send tips or say hi at esun@sacbee.com! 🐝


Proud to share the National @HeadlinerAwards this week also recognized "The Final Fall," with 3rd place in investigative reporting by newspapers in Top 20 media markets.
