My Work
I cover the environment and conservation for outlets such as Ensia, Mongabay.com, Hakai, Wild Hope and Bay Nature magazine. I crowdfunded "The Mustang Trail," a year-long reporting project about the welfare state of America's wild horses. My articles on medicine, health and biomedical research have appeared in Nature Medicine, Nature, Cancer Discovery, Stanford Medicine magazine and Science News for Students. I've contributed news stories to Science, ScienceNOW, and National Geographic News and published regional news for the San Jose Mercury News, Bay Area Monitor and the Monterey County Herald. Additionally, I designed and launched the first three annual editions of a university research magazine, inquiry@UC Santa Cruz. Wherever there are compelling stories to share, I'm on that beat.
