I have a new piece on Dateini from TechCrunch Disrupt for Yahoo! Shine: Dateini, one of the startups displayed at TechCrunch Disrupt, promises to help users “plan dates like Houdini”. Users select their location, cuisine type, budget, and theme, and … Continue reading

Ironforge Travelogue

Turned this up while working on my portfolio. Usually when I re-read things I wrote a long time ago, I cringe, but I’m still pretty pleased with this one. The assignment, for Azeroth World News, was an in-world travelogue in … Continue reading

Between New York and Los Angeles

I wrote this piece, Wanting, for TheSmartly a few months ago, but traveling between the two cities reawakens the same feelings. LA and New York make me want. That’s not a transitive verb here, I don’t have something in particular … Continue reading
