Poet. Writer. Editor.

I live and work in a converted barn in New York’s Hudson River Valley, under the gaze of Overlook Mountain and the outstretched arms of a great white oak.  

POETRY

“I too, dislike it,” famously began Marianne Moore in her ars poetica, “Poetry,” which I read in twelfth-grade AP English. I thought I fell into this camp until, in college, a friend showed me two Sharon Olds poems and a window blew open in my chest.

FREELANCE WRITING

Over my two-decade career, I have crafted globetrotting special sections (Travel + Leisure)…ghostwritten for CEOs (Forbes)…dished up foodie newsletters (Food & Wine)…penned thought leadership for executives (McKesson)…drafted website content for compassionate innovators (Aware Recovery Care)…reported on the healthcare supply chain (The Economist Group)…and generally enjoyed spinning words into gold.
