Interview

What was your first job as a journalist?

Writing news for a consumer tech site during the web 1.0 bubble. I've been at this for a while.

Who's your favorite fictional journalist?

Gary Gnu, because no gnews is good gnews with Gary Gnu.

How do you prefer to be pitched on stories?

On-topic.

What advice can you offer to aspiring journalists?

Other than the bog-standard "find another line of work," establish clear work/life boundaries and stick to them.

When's the best time to pitch you?

Any time during east coast business hours.
