A quintessential anthropologist at heart, my editorial portfolio reflects my abundant curiosity about pretty much everything. I have written for a range of print and online publications, including Hemispheres, Atlas Obscura, Colorado Life, and Horse Illustrated. Whether learning about an innovative Northern Colorado land cooperative or riding with nomads in Kyrgyzstan's backcountry, I'm always looking for the intersections between individual experience and wide-angle context. Find some of my favorite pieces below, or browse my full portfolio at Contently.
