I'm a Canadian-American writer with a PhD in English and over a decade of experience writing about culture in all its dazzling forms. You can find my bylines at The Atlantic, Pitchfork, Vulture, Bandcamp, The Bluegrass Situation, Holler, Indy Week, the Village Voice, and other publications. I also write about music more personally at The Sound Also Rises.

Beyond this freelance cultural criticism, I've applied my larger interest in storytelling to an array of content marketing needs, producing short-form and long-form work for prominent universities, cultural brands, and tech companies.

Iā€™m based in Toronto, Ontario.
