Caelan Bailey

Originally from and currently based in the Carolinas, I'm a journalist who's aired radio dispatches from a gold-domed state capitol in Appalachia and edited long-form articles on student protests from inside Columbia University's gates. Most recently, I reported on state politics in West Virignia, a state where many news and Internet deserts rely on radio access — and where folks would often tell me they knew from my voice on the air. Leading multimedia projects across varied landscapes of power, I know how to build community trust and deliver lasting narrative impact in return.
