As Mirror Indy's economics reporter, I write about housing and other topics from the perspective of your average Indianapolis resident.
I got my start as a reporter at the Indianapolis Recorder, where I covered everything from racial justice to education. Most recently, I covered courts and the legal profession at the Indiana Lawyer.
I love sports, especially college football, college basketball and baseball. I'm a youth baseball coach and I also like to read (mostly nonfiction). I listen to a lot of traditional country music from the 1950-70’s.
I love the idea of a journalism model built for people so that’s why I came to Mirror Indy. The profession has a reputation (sometimes earned, sometimes not) of being elitist and stuffy, and this feels like a good way to work against that current.
My phone number is 317-766-1406 and my email address is tyler.fenwick@mirrorindy.org.
