I’m a writer, editor and video producer in New York. I cover the intersection of economics and daily life, with a particular interest in work and inequality.

My absolute favorite thing is demystifying complicated stories in ways that enlighten and surprise regular people. That’s meant everything from breaking down how the economics of hotels have made travel shitty to explaining the pre-pandemic collapse of the plastic recycling industry.

I’ve worked with or for The Washington Post, CBS News, HuffPost, Inc., Fortune, Crain’s New York Business, Mother Jones, City Limits, and elsewhere.

I’ve also researched and reported for the late, great, Wayne Barrett, translated for TIME, managed a digital photo lab, and worked as a (mediocre) bartender. Along the way I got a master’s from the Newmark School of Journalism.
