Showcase

General

Cute piece on copyediting.
For-profit medical education is making a comeback in the United States. This piece explores the topic.
I author the "Medical Treatments" department at About.com. I produce 12 slide shows and articles a month.
A cutting-edge, in-depth look at virtual patients.
How the residency match will change.
My wife went on bed rest with our first pregnancy. (Thankfully, everything turned out well.) This piece was picked up by Pregnancy magazine. It showcases some of my humor.
I scooped this story. TCOM, an osteopathic medical school, was considering adding on an allopathic component. This piece sparked serious debate and change--the plans were eventually scrapped. I won an Apex Award for this story
Everything you ever need to know about journalism, style, article writing, platforms, and publication. Meant for every freelancer.
