Hello! My name is Theo Wells-Spackman, and I joined VTDigger in July to cover wealth, poverty and economic inequality in Vermont. My position is made possible by Report for America and by VTDigger members who donate to support our work.
I grew up here, in New Haven and then Weybridge. I’m glad to be back — I recently graduated from Princeton University, where I studied English and journalism. Before arriving at VTDigger as a full-time reporter, I was an intern here, working with this incredible team of reporters and editors.
In my first few weeks of conversations, I’ve heard a lot of people expressing concern and uncertainty about what Vermont’s future might hold, both for newcomers and those who have been here for generations.
As I plan what stories to tackle, I want to hear from you: What questions do you have about wealth, poverty and economic inequality in Vermont? What feels urgent where you live? What’s confusing or under-explained?
