My writing has appeared in national magazines such as Discover and Newsweek and in newspapers including the Boston Globe, 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.

Feedback from my editors includes:

"Amy was assigned a challenging cover story… she pulled it off fabulously."

"You do a great job with the descriptive writing and really take me there."

Sources have said:

"You write beautifully. I am grateful to you for the interesting way you wrote about the work."

"I don't recall if I got the chance to thank you for writing such a thorough and accurate article... You really invested a lot of time and got the story just right."

"A wonderful and detailed article…"

As a freelance journalist, I pursue stories that intrigue me. I am particularly interested in reporting on science and health. Visit my Clips page for examples of my work.
