About me
I’m an American journalist. I have experience on the ground in Africa, Europe, and in the U.S. And I'm deeply interested in dealing with the tangled complexities of politics and culture.
I have written for international audiences, focusing on complicated legislative issues, for years. But I have experience in traditional newsrooms as well, and in digital editorial settings; the audiences for the publications I have written for cover the spectrum: international, national, regional, and provincial.
I have also moonlighted as a researcher compiling global regulation trackers utilized by regulators in Europe and the US for various industries, including the vaping/cannabis sector and gene editing technologies. I have a BA in “Government” from the College of William and Mary in Virginia.
