I am a Brooklyn-based journalist, ghostwriter, editor, and adjunct professor of media studies at 
Hunter College, CUNY, where I teach journalism. I also teach cultural criticism at New York 
University's Schoolof Continuing and Professional Studies, and I have taught interdisciplinary 
courses in the humanities, as well as numerous courses on film history, analysis, and theory.

My articles have appeared in American ArtistArtbyteCameraWork, City Limits, The IndependentPAPER, RES, Runner's World, SOMA, Time Out Chicagoand the Utne Reader
From 2000 to 2001, I was a staff editor and writer at the Silicon Alley Reporter, covering the dot-com 
boom and bust of that era. 

In recent years, I have transitioned into online journalism, namely as the chief writer for the 
"Awearness Blog," a social issues and political blog sponsored by Kenneth Cole Productions, from 
February 2008 to May 2010. Currently, I serve as the anchor of a blog connected to Contrary 
Magazine, an online literary journal based in Chicago. For Contrary, I write about issues in the 
humanities, journalism, and writing. 

I have ghostwritten books on new media design and digital filmmaking for a world-renowned Web 
designer. I have also edited ad copy and corporate newsletters, and served on several panels and 
awards committees to evaluate journalism, screenplays, Web sites, short online films, and new 
media art projects. 

          My avocation is competitive distance running, which I began doing some years back. I race 
          distances from the 5K up, and have run 18 marathons.
