Journalist, fiction writer, and co-director of the Redbud Writing Project, North Carolina Research Triangle's only adult education writing school.

In the past, I've worked in the nonprofit sector as a social media manager at the Jewish Women's Archive in Brookline, Mass., and as a reporter for the Boston Globe and at GateHouse Media in Boston.

Besides my experience as a staff reporter, I've written articles and essays on a freelance basis for publications including The New York Times, the Guardian, the Assembly, Slate, NPR, the Financial Times, Atlas Obscura, Roads & Kingdoms, the Baffler, and Off Assignment, in countries such as Germany, England, Mexico, Iceland, and South Korea.

I've also published more than 20 short stories in online and print venues.
