About me

I am a Washington, D.C.-based writer, editor, and speechwriter with experience delivering high-quality op-eds, blog posts, essays, reported pieces, etc.

I am an award-winning reporter, columnist, and freelancer, covering a wide variety of beats. I have contributed to The Washington Post, The Washington Examiner, Quillette, National Journal, Miami Herald, Detroit News, Detroit Free Press, Charlotte Observer, The Columbia State, as well as city magazines, publications and sites focusing on health, travel, financial issues, city magazines, and other specialty publications. My freelance reporting is referenced in two books of note: Thurston Clarke’s The Last Campaign: Robert F. Kennedy and 82 Days That Inspired America, and in Freedom Riders, by Raymond Arsenault.

The subject matter of my writing and communications work has been diverse, with focuses in areas including communicating K-12 and higher-ed federal policy. I have a particular interest in the failure of conspiracy thinking regarding 1960s political murders.

I provide strategic communications consulting for all manner of organizations, associations, projects, proposals, as well as corporate and individual clients. I edit manuscripts and books, including one by a New York Times-bestselling author.

I earned a master's degree from Georgetown University and bachelor's degree from Central Michigan University. All design and production on this site by me, on the Squarespace platform. Would love to connect. Please contact me.
