Professional Experience
I am a freelance journalist turned Ph.D turned freelance journalist that specializes in race, politics, and youth issues. I strive not sound ANYTHING like an academic, and am willing to work on any issue from the very silly to the serious. I'm open to working on short-service pieces to longer feature stories. I'm also available to do press/communications work.
