Professional Experience

I got my start as a newspaper reporter during college, writing about subjects ranging from slumlords in New Hampshire to a prostitute serving time in Illinois state prison for attempting to spread the HIV virus. Working at a daily on the Texas-Mexico border, I regularly covered public corruption, voter fraud, toxic pesticide pollution and drug-related crime. Now freelancing, I write about a wide range of topics, including child development, real estate, health and culture.
