Writer & Researcher | Editing, Journalism, Long-Form Nonfiction

I’m a writer and researcher with a background in anthropology and the sciences, with experience across legal settings, journalism, academic research, and education. I specialize in clear, thoughtful, well-researched nonfiction and investigative essay-style journalistic pieces and in editing complex material for clarity, structure, and voice. My writing has been published in The Tennessean, and I am credited on an academic research paper produced by a Yale-affiliated research team. I’m comfortable working with dense source material involving multiple stakeholders (e.g., various individuals implicated in a legal mosaic), synthesizing research, and shaping ideas into precise, readable prose. I am strategic and systematic, often organizing source material chronologically and thematically under Grounded Theory qualitative research methodology. I work best with clients who value rigor, nuance, and careful thinking. Typical projects include long-form nonfiction, research support, developmental or line editing, and helping professionals articulate complex ideas, including legal problems, for a broader audience. My background in law-adjacent and educational environments means I’m reliable with deadlines, discreet with sensitive material, and attentive to detail. If you’re looking for a writer who can think deeply, write cleanly, and improve the substance as well as the style of your work, I’d be glad to talk.
