ABOUT ME

Behind the Words

A seasoned reporter, cultural commentator, and restaurant critic, I bring a frank and graceful voice to features, profiles, and essays that expose the beating heart of the political and cultural moment. My work has appeared in The New York Times, The LA Times, Travel & Leisure, Glamour, The Seattle Times, Lingua Franca, Utne Reader, and more. Besides journalism, I have written travel and restaurant guidebooks, marketing materials, class curricula, obituaries, and love letters.
