Los Angeles
Covers:  I mostly write about music and entertainment, with the former being my primary topic. However, I have also done investigative journalism, human interest stories, and opinion pieces.

Interview

Have you ever used a typewriter?

No and I don't think I ever will. Unless it was like the one from Naked Lunch.

Who's your favorite fictional journalist?

Howard Beale from Network

Why did you become a journalist?

I feel as though it's sometimes easier to express myself through writing, and journalism presents opportunities to do that and help others.

What advice can you offer to aspiring journalists?

Find a specific space or niche that not many people are occupying and do it the best.

When you're not at a computer, where are you most likely to be?

Outside, either taking a walk or reading a book somewhere quiet

Aside from your own, what's your favorite publication to read?

I love reading old magazines and zines from the 60s-90s since many are archived online. Special shout out to Greed Magazine.
