Hello! Welcome to my writing portfolio. I am a nonprofit communications professional and a freelance writer. As a communications professional, I have written or substantively edited fact sheets, articles, research summaries, annual reports, and op-eds for the Urban Institute, Urban Land Institute, and the Center for Law and Social Policy. I served as a staff writer for Urban Land, the magazine of the Urban Land Institute, and wrote longform features for Bethesda Magazine, Minority Nurse, and Prince George’s Suite Magazine. In addition, I have contributed stories and reviews to Washington Post Express, the Colorado Springs Independent, New America Media, Spirituality+Health, the San Francisco Chronicle, and Periodic Elements, a science publication of George Mason University. I have held reporting positions at the St. Petersburg Times (now Tampa Bay Times) and the Tallahassee Democrat. I completed reporting internships at the Oregonian and the Dayton Daily News.
I have a Master’s in Journalism from the University of California, Berkeley and live in Silver Spring, MD.
