Professional Experience
I'm a well-published staff editor at Robb Report magazine, a national luxury lifestyle men's publication. At Robb Report and my previous staff editorial position at Angeleno magazine, (a Los Angeles regional, luxury lifestyle publication) I've covered everything from $850,000, hand-made rifles, Ducati superbikes, and high-end crystal to skin care, hotel and restaurant openings, fashion pieces, and art shows both for online and print.
