In short, I live in Maine, take photographs with a brass Canon F1, and explore the unseen, underrepresented, or purposely obfuscated processes that transform our world.
I write a weekly column for GOOD and I’ve worked as an editor for Maine magazine and The Christian Science Monitor. My work has been featured in Wired, Saveur, Gastronomica, Gourmet, The Boston Globe, Orion, The San Francisco Chronicle, Down East, Publishers Weekly, and The Atlantic.
I grew up in the Hudson Valley, where I studied the effects of Ginkgo biloba on my peers and jumped off cliffs into freshwater streams. Since then, I’ve done everything from working on dairy farms in New Zealand to foraging for ulmaria and konbu near Brookings, Oregon. I once traveled the Caribbean on the 150-foot oil refueling vessel between the port of San Juan and Gallow’s Bay, St. Croix. This is my first website.
