I'm a Copywriter & Editor living in Eastern USA.

Writing for multiple large city newspapers, free cultural magazines, and Relix Media Group and RollingStone.com, Jambands.com,
WIRED's Brand Lab in the SF Enquirer and the Nevada Sagebrush.  Focusing on Music, Art and Technology and the people who created in those circles.

When covering live performances and new releases, I try to look past the surface. I aim to explore the cultural context behind an artist's work to help readers understand its broader implications. This involves:

• Narrative Profiling: Focusing on the creative psychology and career paths of musicians, rather than just conducting standard interviews.
• Feature Writing: Writing long-form pieces that explore industry trends and emerging subcultures
  

Technical Literacy and Digital Advocacy

Writing about the internet means balancing technical details with accessibility. My interest in digital freedom and awareness involves:

• Digital Literacy: Explaining changes in web infrastructure and privacy to a general audience.
• Educational Copy: Writing guides to help users navigate new technological tools.

Industry and News Reporting
Breaking news requires speed and accuracy. I try to maintain a steady pipeline of pitches to stay engaged with industry trends and talent discovery, rather than just reacting to the news cycle.

Looking at these different areas, I need to decide if I want to pivot more toward technical copywriting, or if I should find a way to integrate both my music and tech backgrounds into a single niche.

Writing about icons like Bob Dylan and Johnny Winter isn’t just a gig; it’s a history lesson. I’ve spent years digging into the roots of the American songbook to figure out how these legends built the foundation for everything we’re listening to today.

Sitting down with guys like Bob Weir and Mike Gordon means getting into the weeds of the "jam" world. I love breaking down the gear, the setlist magic, and that weird, perfect chemistry that only happens when a band is flying without a net. It’s part technical talk, part philosophy, and all about the community.

From the raw energy of Pearl Jam and The Dead Weather to the pure, heart-wrenching soul of the late, great Sharon Jones, I’ve covered the full spectrum. Whether it’s garage rock, Americana, or deep-pocket soul, I’m all about capturing that "lightning in a bottle" feeling of a great record or a sweaty live show.
