I'm a feature writer with particular expertise in tea, the animal advocacy movement, and social/cultural issues.

In the past, I earned a B.A. in journalism and then worked as a full-time newspaper reporter. Now I direct communications at a nonprofit organization, while also writing for various publications as a freelance journalist. Primarily, I'm a writer and editor for Eighty Degrees, a print-only magazine about tea culture.

I also study Japanese language, play in a Central Javanese gamelan, and assist with operations for a matcha cafe. I'm based in Atlanta, and I travel frequently.
