Interview

What was your first job as a journalist?

I was Editor In Chief for a cardiology medical journal.

Have you ever used a typewriter?

Absolutely.

What does it mean to be a journalist?

It means offering objective information in a very engaging, straight-forward way. It is offering knowledge to the masses.

How do you prefer to be pitched on stories?

Quickly and succinctly.

What tools and software do you use to do your job?

Social media and a word processor.

What's your favorite social network?

LinkedIn

Did you work for your high school newspaper? If so, what did you do there?

I didn't.

What advice can you offer to aspiring journalists?

Keep your head up and just keep writing. Also, find a good editor.

When's the best time to pitch you?

Early in the morning.

What's the most common misperception about your beat?

That medicine is exclusively technical. There are a lot of emotional and heartwarming stories to be told.
