Professional Experience

I specialize in beverage writing--from cocktail trends to coffee shop logistics, from reviews to roundups. A pro musician in a former life, I also cover travel and do copywriting for businesses. Favorite drink now: a shot of single-origin espresso on a rainy day in Portland, city of great drinks.
