I write about art, culture, food, Iowa, LGBTQ issues, politics, and how those things intersect. I’ve contributed dozens of publications including Michelin, CN Traveler, PAPER, VICE, Food52, them., Grindr, Hello Mr., and more. I’m currently working on a book.
I’m currently Chief Marketing Officer at Consumer Reports one of the largest publishing platforms in the country and one of America’s most impactful nonprofits. Previously, I worked as Chief Marketing Officer at Stack Overflow, where I ran marketing and communications for the leading software company and massive developer community. Before Stack, I was a vice president at GLG. I started my career in communications at Teach For America and spent three years as a senior director at Group SJR, a digital marketing agency within WPP, where I led a diverse portfolio of accounts including General Electric, Goldman Sachs, TED, and Xerox.
