From Argentina to Alaska, California to Massachusetts, I have explored the stories of people I've met. My work ranges from daily news reports to magazine features to hosting a weekly public radio health program.

My writing has appeared in national magazines such as Discover and Newsweek and in newspapers including the Boston Globe, Daily Hampshire Gazette, New York Times and San Francisco Chronicle.

Radio features I've produced have aired nationally on programs such as All Things Considered, Justice Talking, Living on Earth, Marketplace, Morning Edition and Weekend Edition.

As a freelance journalist, I pursue stories that intrigue me. Those have included the bicycle-powered trash hauling business in Northampton, Massachusetts, the real-time, science-based permanent sound installation at the University of Alaska Museum of the North and increasing efforts to build houses that are more energy efficient. I am particularly interested in reporting on science and healthcare. Visit my Clips page for more examples of my work.

Contact me with story ideas, assignment possibilities or feedback.
