About

My background spans magazine writing, editorial leadership, and digital publishing, with early experience in acting.

At Sports Illustrated Kids, I interviewed and profiled major athletes during a defining stretch of the magazine’s run. I later became an editor-in-chief at Scholastic (home of Harry Potter), with occasional appearances on network TV and radio, before joining a global marketing and communications firm where I wrote and directed narrative video.

Selected samples include: The Louis Armstrong Memorial Dishwasher (The New York Times Metropolitan Diary), on the meaning of an honorary Oscar (The Credits, Motion Picture Association), and a short feature on post-war recovery (client video).

Oh, and ask me about the Random Celebrity Sighting Scale — my entirely unofficial system for ranking the cultural significance of encountering famous people in the wild.
