Professional Experience

A widely published freelancer, I've written about dicey downtown L.A. politics, tech, the Christian homeschooling movement, billionaire philanthropists and many contemporary artists. I also copywrite frequently, and have worked on fashion, non-profit and real estate projects, in addition to arts organization websites.
