In my latest for @lapublicpress.bsky.social, I spoke to and gathered testimony from over 30 Altadena residents — many of whom shared with me that they never received Wireless Emergency Alerts from LA County ordering them to evacuate. lapublicpress.org/2025/01/alta...
Altadena residents question why evacuation warnings came so late
For many, warning of the approaching firestorm came either very late or not at all. The county is now investigating.

For @teenvogue.bsky.social, I spoke to students who have lost homes and schools to the LA fires about the future of their education.

~ 20 schools have been severely damaged or completely leveled by the Eaton and Palisades fires. www.teenvogue.com/story/school...
Your School Burned to the Ground. What Happens Now?
A growing number of students are losing their schools to environmental disasters.
