About
I'm a full-time freelance journalist reporting on people and places, including arts and culture, business, technology, nature, and cities.
I focus on researching pandemics, protests, and how people occupy space. I am conducting an oral history project as part of that work.
My writing appears in Time, The New York Times, The New Yorker,
The Guardian, The Economist, Departures, and CityLab.
Currently, I'm a contributing writer for The Sick Times. Previously, I was a contributing writer for publications including Entrepreneur, Fortune, and Mental Floss. For five years, I wrote Centurion's San Francisco listings.
As a critic, I review books, hiking trails, and hotels.
Managing Editor of the bijou, biweekly digital publication The Magazine.
In 2019, I even edited my own name.
I'm also a photographer. My photos accompany my articles published in Atlas Obscura, Islands, Modern Farmer, and Spirituality & Health.
I began my career in noncommercial terrestrial radio and have co-hosted and appeared as a guest on numerous podcasts.
I live in San Francisco with Andreas Haugstrup Pedersen. I received my master's degree from Emerson College.
