I’m a writer, reporter, and occasional podcaster. My stories have been featured on Longform, Longreads, The Sunday Long Read, and The New York Times At Home and Away Newsletter. I’m also the editor-in-chief of Drifter, a weekly newsletter in which hitchhikers, train-hoppers, and other no-money adventurers tell their stories.

From 2021 to 2024, I was a full-time media reporter at The Fine Print, covering intrigue in New York newsrooms and ecstasy at media parties. Before that, I fact-checked investigative features for GQ, Rest of World, and other publications.

I’ve walked across countries and hitchhiked continents.
