I’m a writer, investigator, and criminal justice reform advocate who lives in New Orleans with two books out, a novel and a work of nonfiction. Before moving to New Orleans in 2008 I worked as a Teaching Fellow in a Literature class at Harvard for three years and as an editor at a couple of different magazines in Boston.
In New Orleans I was an Investigator and Policy Director for Innocence Project New Orleans and Deputy Vice President for Policy at the Cowen Institute at Tulane as well as a Teacher at Bard Early College New Orleans. My non-fiction book, The Trials of Walter Ogrod, helped free an innocent man from Pennsylvania’s death row and was featured on episodes of both Death Row Stories and Dateline.
I have published articles in The American Prospect magazine and Op-Ed pieces in The Boston Globe, The New Orleans Times-Picayune, and the New York Times, ghostwritten four books. I’ve also been profiled by newspapers a few times so I understand both sides of the media eye.
Writing is just communication, but if you don’t like it it can twist you up in knots. (Like math does for some of us, I’m not naming names.) I specialize in helping you say exactly what you want to say exactly as you want to say it—letter, paper, short story, article, I can help you communicate more effectively. If you want to tell your family story, tell your own story, write a toast, write a roast, write a letter to a lawyer or an institution—whatever you need, I can help you say it more clearly and more effectively.
