Jasmine Ulloa

My name is Jasmine Ulloa, and I'm a national politics reporter for The New York Times.

I grew up in Texas on the border with Mexico, and I've been reporting in the region since I was in high school.

Now I travel the country looking for stories and voices that really capture what immigration and the nation's demographic changes mean for people.

What I keep encountering is that people don't fall into neat ideological boxes on this very volatile issue.

There's a lot of gray.

And that's where I feel the most interesting stories are.

I'm trying to bring that complexity and nuance to our audience.

And that's really what all of my colleagues on the politics team and every journalist at The New York Times is aiming to do.
