I’m a science and tech journalist, currently working as a staff editor for science and health guest essays at The New York Times Opinion. Prior to that I was a senior editor at The Daily Beast, leading the outlet’s science and innovation coverage. Previous roles include working as a space reporter for MIT Technology Review and an associate editor at Inverse. My work has also been featured in Popular Science, Slate, The Verge, New York Magazine, Wired, and other publications. I’m originally from Virginia, currently live in Brooklyn, and have spent other times in my life in San Francisco, Boston, and Washington, D.C. Outside of journalism I’m an aging indie rock fanatic, a basketball junkie, and always looking for a good new place to get ramen.
