I do interviews, reporting, and music criticism, mostly for New York Magazine. I’ve also written for Rolling Stone, Pitchfork, Interview Magazine, Bandcamp Daily, McSweeney’s, Electric Lit, Lit Hub, and more.
I’m also the founder of 7 For Seven, a weekly doc sharing seven links on writing and creativity, and where I interview writers on how they stay creative. Become more creative today.
And I code. I’m a full-stack software engineering specializing in JavaScript, React, and Python. Recent projects:
- Big D’oh: Homer Reads ‘Cracking the Coding Interview’ Guiding fellow Bootcamp graduates through the technical interview process with this Simpsons-inspired React study guide teaching Big O and common algorithms and data structures.
- GoDish Google’s “I’m feeling lucky” for local food; MERN-stack app built for General Assembly’s Small Business Hackathon helping restaurants bounce back from the pandemic. (We came in third!)
- What Time Should I Write? Inspiring creativity with this database holding the daily routines of well-known writers; powered by Python, Django, and Amazon AWS.
- Snap Out Of It! MERN-stack app providing action steps and games to guide users through heartbreak.
