An award-winning writer, seasoned campaigner, and big fan of bold, creative storytelling. A graduate of the Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism, I seem to end up where politics, social movements, and media intersect, and I currently work with one of the smartest, funnest teams in the world at A—B building the profile and power of progressive ideas, people and institutions.
At global campaigning network Avaaz I researched disinformation networks, organized climate marches and campaigns, and ran grassroots fundraisers backing some of the boldest change-makers around the world, from activists creating a first of its kind snow leopard preserve in Nepal to humanitarian heroes in Myanmar.
Previously as a journalist I covered religion, politics and culture, human rights, economic justice, immigrant and refugee stories, LGBT issues and more for the New York Times, The Guardian, The Huffington Post, The Nation and many more. I’ve also worked on a number of documentary film projects shot in the U.S. and in Latin America, am fluent in Portuguese and Spanish, and have traveled and worked extensively in Latin America and elsewhere.
