Interview

Have you ever used a typewriter?

Of course!

What does it mean to be a journalist?

There's an enormous amount of responsibility to tell the stories that need to told, as fairly and as accurately as possible.

What's your favorite social network?

Twitter's been great for me getting my blog posts get wider circulation out in cyberspace.

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

I didn't work for the high-school paper.

What advice can you offer to aspiring journalists?

Take advantage of any opportunity (including interning) to get a crack in print/Internet or on broadcast.

When's the best time to pitch you?

Any time's good, since my schedule can be a bit unpredictable.
