🤠 welcome to my web site 🕺

Hi! I'm Molly.

I'm a freelance journalist based in Brooklyn, NY. I write about climate change, science, tech, health, politics, and anything else I find interesting, weird, or compelling.

I'm currently a reporter and editor at Drilled, an investigative multimedia reporting project focused on climate accountability. 

I was a contributing editor at The New Republic, where I edited the site's climate vertical and wrote the weekly climate newsletter. Before that, I was a staff writer at Earther, Gizmodo’s climate change blog.  Before that, I worked at the Center for Public Integrity on a project on mental health & natural disasters and was a staff writer at Nexus Media News, a nonprofit newswire focused on climate, science, and tech. I've also freelanced for outlets including the Intercept, The Guardian, The Nation, VICE, Buzzfeed News, Outside Magazine, and Teen Vogue.

I won a 2023 SEAL Environmental Journalism award for my work at Earther. I graduated in May 2020 from Columbia’s journalism school, where I was a Stabile investigative fellow
