I am a freelance writer specializing in music, art, and culture. I’ve also covered local news and written copy. My work has been published in Chronogram, The Artful Mind, The Litchfield Times, The NYC Jazz Record, The NY Press, NJ Starz, Shindig!, Elmore, The Indypendent, The Red Hook Star Review, in Spanish for Ruta 66 and Mondo Sonoro, and many others.
