In addition to my day job working as a social media specialist for a county library system, I am a Contributing Editor over at Book Riot. I write regular posts for the site, which you can find here, and produce a weekly nonfiction email newsletter, True Story. You can sign up for the newsletter here.
Prior to starting work at the library, I spent six years working as a community journalist and did some freelance writing for other outlets. This is a small list of some of my other work.
