Writer • Editor • Audience engagement strategist
I'm an experienced journalist who helps news outlets prioritize reader, listener, and viewer needs. My most recent full-time role was at The Atlantic, where I focused on podcast promotion and managing platforms including the homepage, app, YouTube, and social media. I've won awards for breaking news and feature writing from the DC chapter of the Society of Professional Journalists, and was named the Catholic Press Association’s 2020 Social Media Professional of the Year. When I’m not writing, I’m probably planning a camping trip.
