Journalism

Before I dove head first into copywriting, I cut my teeth with some journalistic projects. I thought I'd include a few below just to show off some of my breadth. They're oldies, but goodies!

LOCAL GUMSHOE

Hoodline

While living in San Francisco, I did some freelance journalism with Hoodline. They assigned me to the South of Market neighborhood. I ran around and interviewed business owners and talked to developers and bothered government workers. Here are a few of the stories I came up with.

On a pillar of the SF comedy scene
On the Museum of the African Diaspora
On an iconic SF art and performance space
On Janet Delaney's photography project
On a museum that collects ephemera
On an SF teacher activist
On the Filipino community
On homelessness

LOCAL CRITIC

ZYZZYVA

They're the last word on the West Coast literary scene. I wrote a few book reviews for them. And one concert review to switch it up.

On Wendy Lesser's "Why I Read"
On Ben Marcus's "Leaving the Sea"
On Kim Fu's "For Today I Am a Boy"
On Rodrigo Rey Rosa's "Severina"
On the Moth
On the Tune-Yards
