This site first launched in 2002 during the Internet's adolescence. It’s gone through many incarnations, most recently as a portfolio of all my writing and videos - creative and commercial. Lots has changed in the world and in my world in this nearly quarter century. While I still want to share my whole corpus of work, I feel like my commercial pieces don't really belong here, and I'm craving a fresh start and an exploration of something more human, real and creatively fulfilling. So I give you this reincarnated site which features my favorite work of all time - a greatest hits of published culture and lifestyle stories. More to come: I will also be rolling out a small selection of personal essays, and my 'best of' travel compilation.
