Hello, and welcome to my website.
I am a writer, editor, farm owner, blogger, maker and explorer. The world fascinates me. Stories intrigue me. And journalism gives me a license to explore the world and write stories about it.
I’ve worked for the Panama City News Herald in Florida, The Gardner News in Massachusetts, radio stations, a weekly newspaper, AmeriCorps NCCC Fema Corps and the Boy Scouts. The work has been diverse and scattered across the country, teaching me lessons in empathy, politics, culture and so much more.
At this point, I’ve written hundreds of stories that range from hard news to lighthearted features to personal columns and even some podcasts. My favorites stories say something about life and its complexities. They often toe the line between news and feature, and try to give someone a voice. You’ll find some examples in the archives like this one or this one.
