Hi, I’m Margaret. You can also call me Margie — as long as you say it with a hard g as in grape.

I’m currently a reporter at NOTUS and a fellow at the Allbritton Journalism Institute, where I cover science and health policy with a focus on alternative health. Along with a colleague, I broke the story on the fabricated citations in the MAHA Commission Report. I’ve also written about raw milk, cell phone radiation and more.

I have a bachelor’s degree in biology from MIT and worked as a biologist for five years before becoming a reporter. I’m based in Washington, D.C., and I’m originally from Charlottesville, Virginia. My two cats are named Luna and Elmo.
