About Me

A little bit about me...

Hi! 

I'm Torey. I write things. These days, I work as a co-author of Axios Twin Cities, a free newsletter that helps readers get smarter, faster about the biggest stories shaping life in the Minneapolis-St. Paul metro. We’ve build an audience of more than 100,000 subscribers since launching in January 2021. You can join them heres://www.axios.com/local/twin-cities!

Before joining Axios, I was a political reporter in the Capitol Bureau of the Minneapolis Star Tribune. My bylines have also appeared in places like The Washington Post,  The Daily BeastGlamour.com, Public Radio International, Bustle, Refinery29, Teen Vogue and  InStyle.com. I also contributed to Comstock's magazine, a regional business publication in Sacramento.

In past professional lives, I worked as a features writer and editor at Refinery29, a digital editor for a group of 11 NBC Owned Television Stations and a political reporter at The Sacramento Bee. I've covered congressional and gubernatorial races, state and federal policy, and five national political conventions. 

I live in South Minneapolis with my husband, our toddler and our sweet (but poorly behaved) senior golden retriever.
