Levi Pulkkinen here. I am an investigative reporter and editor based in Seattle. You'll find my work at U.S. News & World Report , The Guardian , The Hechinger Report and GeekWire , as well as Yes! Magazine , High Country News , Next City , and The Appeal . Regionally, I write for Crosscut , Seattle Met , and InvestigateWest. Before going independent, I served as senior editor at SeattlePI, where I also reported for 11 years.
Beyond my own journalism, I help writers shape their work and build their reporting power. If you need a Seattle story told, impactful training in story development or investigative reporting or some editing horsepower, hit me up at [email protected] .
Our world is a deliciously messy place. I pair my deep experience in data-driven, document-heavy reporting with my interviewing skills to draw out human stories. For more of my work, check out my clips page .
