The Good Stuff

I grew up in the Pacific Northwest, spent 11 years in New York, and, in 2017, finally made my return to the West Coast.

I geek out over craft beer, smart cities, adaptive reuse, and (lately) gardening. I love digging into the underbelly of technology -- all the weird and unexpected ways that it's upending our behavior and relationships. 

Joan Didion is my north star, Veronica Mars is my spirit animal, and I want to live in Aaron Sorkin's world.


The Pitch

I've been working in journalism for over a decade, covering everything from finance and foreign policy to tech and culture. I have extensive experience in breaking news, reported features and multi-platform storytelling.
