My path to technical writing started in journalism. After studying at Syracuse University's Newhouse School of Public Communications, I spent two years reporting for a community newspaper before moving into long-form editorial work at Princeton Alumni Weekly and Stanford's Freeman Spogli Institute — experience that taught me to think carefully about the audience, ask questions until I understood something well enough to explain it clearly, and never assume the reader knows what I know.

I'm based in New York City. Outside of work you'll find me in the ocean — scuba diving or surfing — or somewhere in the city seeing live music.
