Monique is an investigative reporter at The Markup where she covers technology at the intersection of criminal justice, social justice, government accountability and immigration.

Before joining The Markup, she was a national investigative reporter at USA Today, where she helped uncover how the federal government is funding a cheap, noxious piping fix that’s sickening people nationwide. In 2021, she led a team that revealed how a Florida collapsed condo was born of botched construction and evidence of money laundering.

Earlier, Monique spent more than a decade at the Miami Herald. Her award-winning investigative work into immigration detention led to the freedom of a man held in ICE detention and solitary confinement for a record 11 years. As a 2019 Reveal Investigative Fellow at The Center for Investigative Reporting, her accountability reporting unveiled how former Trump chief of staff John Kelly was profiting from the detention of migrant children.
