Our communities are vibrant. Let's tell stories that reflect that!
I'm a journalist currently serving as the Managing Editor at the Community Advocate.
Writing professionally since 2016, I've been published in the Community Advocate, the Hopkinton Independent, the Fifty Plus Advocate, the Let Grow Blog, the Worcester Telegram, the Lowell Spin, BeLocal MetroWest, Five By Two Records, and DigBoston.
I also launched the Substantive newsletter covering addiction in Boston from an individualized, community perspective. Though I've had to step back from that endeavor, I talked to individuals hurt by the addiction crisis and worked to elevate the voices of activists. They called out city and state failures that compounded issues of open drug use and homelessness in particular neighborhoods within Boston. I broke major stories about police actions on drugs that other city news outlets missed. And I worked consistently with a concern for the privacy, dignity and humanity of individuals in a community too often mistreated by the media.
Newspapers are a central part any community, no matter the size. The stories we tell have meaning. The work I get to do as a journalist gives me purpose.
