I’m a writer and editor living in Washington, D.C. My work has appeared in the Associated Press, ABC News, U.S. News & World Report, the Chronicle of Higher Education, and other outlets.
As Senior Editor for Nonprofit Intelligence at the Chronicle of Philanthropy, I write reports on nonprofit trends and produce live journalism on philanthropy topics. Previously, I reported news and features for the magazine. Prior to joining the Chronicle, I coordinated a podcasting bootcamp at WAMU 88.5; edited news and features for DCist; and edited public-policy research for the Center for American Progress.
I write freelance about ecology, horticulture, and nature. I am the author of Right Plant, Right Place, a newsletter about the growing year at my tiny community garden plot. As a nonfiction reader for Smoky Blue Literary Arts Magazine, I review submissions for publication. I’m also at work on my first novel. An enthusiastic hobbyist, I enjoy running, reading, birding, hiking, and trying new recipes with my cookbook club.
