I am a staff editor at The New York Times opinion pages. At the Times, I fact-check guest essays and Sunday Review pieces and commission and edit guest essays.
Previously, I worked as the digital editor of The Yale Review, America’s oldest literary magazine. I have also been a fellow at The Atlantic and a reporter-researcher at The New Republic. My writing appeared in both magazines and has also been published in MEL, The American Scholar, The American Prospect, and other venues.
I’m a native New Englander and won the 2014 New England Newspaper and Press Association award for coverage of a racial or ethnic issue for a feature in The Inquirer and Mirror. At Dartmouth, I wrote a thesis on Jacobite political thought in lyric verse and won awards for my nonfiction writing and an essay on punctuation in the work of James Agee.
I also dabble in film photography — and post a lot of my pictures on my Instagram, linked below — and write too many reviews of old movies on Letterboxd.
