I'm a personal essayist and MFA in Writing candidate following a career as an Emmy and Murrow Award-winning journalist working in digital, print, radio and television. My long-term goals include publishing a memoir.. 

My creative nonfiction work explores family dynamics, LGBTQ+ life, grief and aging, among other topics. As a journalist, I focused on the arts, social justice, health/mental health and cultural trends.
