freelance journalist covering science/tech/travel
(fiction & poetry, too)

Coverage areas

I cover a quirky variety of space, technology, geek culture, travel and music stories, including Route 66, Star Trek, strangely scenic rocks on Mars and mushroom foraging in the mountains of New Mexico.

I'm a CNET contributor and freelance writer. Beyond journalism, I work with private clients on fiction, comics and ghostwriting projects. I graduated with a creative writing MFA from the University of New Mexico in 2022 having taught composition and creative writing classes.

My work has appeared in Scruff & Vigor, Pyragraph, Conceptions Southwest, Albuquerque the Magazine, Entrepreneur Magazine, eBay Magazine, Restaurant Business Magazine, New Mexico Magazine and New Mexico Business Weekly, among others.
