He joined in 2019 as training and outreach programming coordinator.

He was introduced to the Journal in 2018 as a fellow on the R&D team, where he researched ways to analyze algorithms and their social impact and wrote a reporter handbook about “deepfake” detection. During the early part of this year, Daldrup worked as a researcher for Dow Jones’ Innovation group.

Before moving to the U.S. in 2017, he was a freelance business journalist in Germany for newspapers and magazines, such as Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung and Stern.
