Hi! I’m Bianca. I’m an investigative journalist and researcher based in New York City.

I’m availabe for freelance assignments. Please contact me at bianca@biancafortis@gmail.com.

I’m currently a freelance writer and a researcher at Moller Media working on a multi-media project about the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York.

Previously, I reported on education at New York Focus, where I covered nearly three million students across almost 700 school districts. Before that I was an Abrams Fellow on ProPublica’s national team. I reported on Covid-19, felony disenfranchisement and Instagram scams.

I spent nearly two years investigating Columbia University’s cover-up of an obstetrician-gynecologist who had been sexually assaulting his patients for more than two decades.

For several years, I wrote for community newspapers in Florida, Washington and New York. My experiences include reporting from the halls of the White House to the foothills of an active volcano. My work has appeared in VICE, CNBC, City and State, amNewYork and other outlets.
