Hello,
I’m an award-winning freelance journalist writing about politics and people.
I was a senior political reporter at HuffPost and the political writer for The (Toledo) Blade. I’ve also written for the Columbia Journalism Review, Connecticut Post, Los Angeles Review of Books, The New Republic, New York Post, NOTUS, Politico Magazine and The Washington Post.
