Some news- On top of my 9-5, I'm pursuing an M.F.A. in nonfiction via Goucher College.
A 🇨🇴 adoptee myself, I'm writing a book on international adoption: its decline, the impact of global reforms and the role of adoptees in seeking justice and change.
My DMs/inbox are open!

🌟 Meet IRE’s 2025 Chauncey Bailey Investigative Reporting Fellows 🌟
Based in Wilmington, Delaware, @joseicastaneda is an award-winning reporter with @Spotlight302. He previously covered the U.S.-Mexico border for @azcentral and led coverage of historically excluded communities for @delawareonline.
As part of the fellowship, José will work on a yearlong investigative reporting project focused on the treacherous conditions of Delaware’s poultry industry. The lack of proper training has led to an increase in workplace injuries with little recourse for accountability.
Learn more about José and his project: ire.org/2025-chauncey-bailey…
