BIO / VALUES / SERVICES
As a writer, editor and project manager, I follow curiosity and immersive empathy. The content I co-create centers the human experience, the natural world and how these forces intersect. My expertise spans the sciences and art, culture, Latin America and travel.
[You can find my work in Discover magazine, CNN Travel, CBS News, Yale Climate Connections, USA Today, Midwest Living, The Des Moines Register, The Asheville Citizen-Times, Wildsam Field Guides and multiple university publications.]
I’m gender nonbinary (they/them/elle), a Spanish speaker and a certified freediver currently based in La Paz, BCS, Mexico and Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
Some of my most memorable projects have involved biking 500 miles across Iowa, floating down Uganda’s Nile River and once getting clobbered by an invasive flying carp while reporting from a kayak. Over the past decade, I’ve specialized in travel, conservation, climate, public policy, social equity and psychology/neuroscience.
My career has included roles as the Features Editor for Discover magazine, the Travel Editor for Midwest Living magazine and the municipal reporter for The Des Moines Register. I’m now a full-time freelancer with equal passion for custom studio content, enterprise journalism packages and creative production in film, podcast and other media formats.
My diverse background allows me to flow between granular content details and big-picture vision and strategy. Services include creative direction, project management, research, editing, writing and production. My true north is creative collaboration and expression in all its forms. If any of this resonates with you and your needs, please say hello!
