I’m a writer.

My work has appeared in places like the Oxford American, Paper Airplane, Lit Hub, Discover, VCU Magazine, Thrillist, and JSTOR Daily, among many others.

I report on business and work for outlets including the BBC, the Economist, the Washington Post, Fast Company, Business Insider, and Inc, among others. I’m the recipient of a Virginia Press Association award for business and financial journalism.

I also run a content studio called study and I’m the creator and host of How to Be Anything, the podcast about people with unusual jobs.
