I specialize in original reporting, destination guides, hotel news, and occasional profiles, focusing on outdoor adventure, luxury lifestyle, wellness, wildlife conservation, and drive programs. Favorite assignments include tracking wild horses in Arizona, swimming with sharks in Hawaii, flying in the back of a USAF trainer jet over Huntington Beach, and off-roading in Joshua Tree. Personal travel highlights range from crossing Bolivia's Salar de Uyuni by Land Cruiser and scuba diving in Dahab, to snowboarding in Hokkaido. My work has appeared in BBC Travel, AFAR, Nat Geo Travel, Condé Nast Traveler, and Fodor's, among other publications.
