Hello! I am a writer and journalist living in Austin, Texas. I previously worked as a senior reporter at HuffPost, where I wrote for Highline, and as a staff reporter for Mother Jones. My work has also appeared in The New York Times Sunday Review, POLITICO Magazine, The Atlantic (online), Marie Claire, Outside, ELLE.com, and Insider. I am a two-time Livingston Awards finalist and was awarded a Writers Guild Award for a story I co-wrote about police officer domestic abuse. You may read some of my journalism here, here, and here.
I completed an M.F.A. in fiction at the University of Wyoming and am an assistant editor for American Short Fiction. I attended the 2021 Tin House summer workshop and Bread Loaf Writers' Conference. My fiction has appeared in Ploughshares, Guernica, Passages North, and CutBank Literary Magazine. I grew up in Bozeman, Montana, which I wrote about here.
