Biography

I’m a recent graduate of the Medill School of Journalism at Northwestern University, where I was taught to spurn the Oxford comma and spin stories with a magazine slant. I grew up in Saratoga, California—a sleepy bedroom community devoid of street lights, about 40 miles southeast of San Francisco. My cross-country trek began in 2008, when I escaped the clutches of a renowned tiger mom and fled to college. Two years ago, I found my way to the overstuffed island of Manhattan, where you might catch me on the 6 train, doubled up over David Sedaris's latest entry in the New Yorker. Prior to my graduation in June 2013, I interned at Popular Science, where I wrote stories for front-of-the-book sections of the print magazine. From July through December, I worked as an Editorial Fellow at Gizmodo, where I scoured RSS feeds and Twitter for intriguing science and technology topics, two of my interests aside from creative nonfiction and investigative journalism. As of March 2014, I've been working with the news and social team at Fast Company.
