writing

I moonlight as a journalist/diarist/essayist/blogger. This is a place for me to share some of my favorite published pieces.

(PS: If you're looking for my "day job" portfolio, which includes technical writing, copywriting, and content design projects, go here.)

local reporting

• Getting to know our urban forest and the science of serotiny
• Inspired by my dad's line of work, conversations with San Francisco's window workers
• In-depth reporting on the hardest easy solution to SF's small business crisis
• Scenes from my neighborhood's pandemic-era neighborhood gallery walk

More can be found on my author pages over at Hoodline (don't mind the ads) and The San Franciscan magazine.
