Expertise

My current focus is on men's health, male socialization, and masculinity. I previously concentrated my reporting on women's health.

About

I am a freelance journalist based in Philadelphia. My work has appeared in The Washington Post, National Geographic, MEL Magazine and other publications. I write about the ways gender and health shape our lives. When I’m not writing, you can find me traveling the world or getting lost in a good book.

Advocacy

I also help tell the story of Adama Jarju, a student from The Gambia whose journey to college took nearly a decade. Through his newsletter, The College Dream, we share stories and reflections from his experience studying abroad and the extraordinary power of an education.

Education
