My name is Dustin Bleizeffer, and I’m a journalist based in Casper, Wyoming. I’ve worked as a coal miner, an oilfield mechanic, and for 20 years as a statewide reporter and editor primarily covering the energy industry.

I’m a regular contributor to WyoFile, and my work has appeared in High Country News, Jackson Hole News&Guide, Casper Star-Tribune, Salt Lake Tribune, Washington Post, and the Denver Post.

I’ve served as WyoFile editor-in-chief and energy reporter at the Casper Star-Tribune and Gillette News-Record, as well as communications director at the Wyoming Outdoor Council. I was a John S. Knight Journalism Fellow at Stanford, class of 2017.
