Biography
I’m a senior editor at Task & Purpose, the news and culture site for service members and veterans. Previously, I was a senior investigative editor for a startup created by ABC News and Univision. From 2013 to 2015, I was a senior writer for Gawker, specializing in national insecurity: domestic discontents, guns, global affairs, and militaria. I launched and edited Gawker’s highly successful Fortress America blog. I also helped launch The Trace, the investigative magazine on gun culture and policy, as a writer and editor. Until mid-2013, I bounced between DC, SF, and the South as Mother Jones’ engagement editor and lead national security reporter. Before that, I worked at the Wall Street Journal, the Village Voice and the Tallahassee Democrat. My writing also appears in the New York Times, Esquire, GQ and Newsweek, among others. I’ve done some stuff in Iraq, won some game-show money, and attended Columbia University’s Graduate School of Journalism to learn investigative reporting, political/military affairs, business and media news, and literary criticism. I’m currently a candidate for the Ph.D. in creative nonfiction at Florida State University and am at work on my first book, a personal and intellectual history of gun culture in America.
