I grew up in the Pacific Northwest, spent 11 years in New York, and, in 2017, finally returned to the West Coast. I’m currently based in Seattle, where I miss NYC’s public transit almost every day.
I geek out over craft beer & good wine, climate solutions & urban innovation, and why Somebody Somewhere was one of the best shows on television, while the second season of Severance was so disappointing.
I've worked in journalism and strategic communications for over 15 years, covering everything from finance and foreign policy to tech and culture to design and clean energy. I have extensive experience in breaking news, reported features, and multi-platform storytelling. I have also worked with a variety of clients on content strategies, thought leadership, and brand messaging.
