I love to showcase the unique personalities and untold narratives behind the most engaging underdog stories and important social issues.
With a range of work experience at Overtime, The Bangor Daily News, The Martha's Vineyard Times and Pacifica Radio, I can thoughtfully and accurately convey information across all forms of media.
As an undergrad at the University of Michigan, I conducted boots-on-the-ground ethnographic research in Spain, Peru and Ecuador, gaining a deeper understanding of the human condition.
I'm a lifelong chess player (I give lessons!), documentary film enthusiast and am a fan of the Detroit Lions and New York Mets.
