About

A natural-born storyteller

I have been a writer for as long as I can remember. It started with short stories and poetry when I was eight years old, continued with my time at the University of Toledo where I learned the ropes as a news reporter, and blossomed in Tokyo where I was a writer and Chief Editor at of one of the biggest English media companies in Japan.

Combining journalistic standards of accuracy and in-depth reporting with engaging storytelling is where I thrive. I have written about traveling in Japan, art, psychedelics, communities, training as a Buddhist monk, University scandals, protests, and beyond. If there’s one thing I know how to do, it’s paint a vivid picture with words that will draw the reader straight into the story.

I am based in my hometown of Detroit, Michigan where I write about art and culture and teach yoga. (for now).
