Freelance Journalist
Organic Spa Magazine, JustLuxe, Azure Road, Hotels Above Par

I specialize in original reported features, destination guides, hotel news, and the occasional profile, with a focus on outdoor adventure, wildlife conservation, wellness, and drive programs. Assignments have taken me from tracking wild horses in Arizona and swimming with sharks in Hawaii to flying in a USAF trainer jet over Huntington Beach and off-roading in Joshua Tree. Personal travel highlights include crossing Bolivia's Salar de Uyuni in a Toyota Land Cruiser, learning to scuba dive in Dahab, Egypt, trekking to Annapurna Base Camp in Nepal, and snowboarding in Hokkaido, Japan. Bylines with BBC Travel, SFGATE, Condé Nast Traveler, Yoga Journal, Marie Claire, Fodor's, Forbes Vetted, and Matador Network, among other outlets.
