Journalism


I write on a range of topics, including education, child welfare, travel, immigration, and economic development, but I consider myself a generalist who enjoys the challenge of taking on any new topic.

My work has appeared in publications including The Guardian, Smithsonian magazine, the Chicago Tribune, The New Republic, American Prospect, The Imprint, Chalkbeat, and more.

Past clients include the University of Minnesota, UCLA Anderson School of Management, GreatSchools, and The Giving List.

Editing


I offer editing for books, websites, and articles on a project or consistent basis. Having been on both sides of the reporting and editing process, my goal in editing is always to preserve the voice and intention of the writer while polishing and clarifying to make it more readable.

I also have several years of experience as a digital news editor and understand the importance of SEO and keywords when editing for the web.
