I'm Massachusetts-born and raised, have my heart stuck in Louisiana and currently split time between Ireland and Spain. I'm an educator and writer intent on bringing awareness to the connections between climate breakdown and economic & racial injustice. I believe empathy is an essential ingredient in powerful storytelling, and that powerful storytelling can shift public opinion and culture, shape policy and our world as we know it.
I'm a regular contributor to Truthout and my work has appeared in The Guardian, Undark, Southerly, MLK50, Yes! Magazine, The Food and Agriculture Reporting Network, Sierra Magazine, Outside Magazine, Hyperallergic Magazine and on New England Public Radio. My stories have been picked up by Mother Jones, Common Dreams, Grist, Teen Vogue, El Diario, The Energy News Network and Salon, among others. I'm also the host and a co-producer of the Southern Environmental Law Center's award-winning podcast Broken Ground.
When off the clock, you can find me skipping down the trails of some woodland, hillside or swamp with my dog; or dancing, eating, sipping, swimming and playing the banjo.
I'm not currently taking on many new assignments, as I am tackling a PhD for the next few years. But please don't hesitate to reach out! Who knows what we might think up together.
