Professional Experience

I've written primarily for the alternative and travel press, with pieces on everything from women's artisan collectives in Oaxaca to the case of a young father accused of murdering the man who molested him as a child in Mendocino County, California. My interests range from social justice and politics to travel and food writing. The best way to view my work is to visit my personal website at www.fredamoon.com.
