I am available to work on contracted writing and editing projects. I focus on health, food, humor, environment, policy, and social issues, but can write about anything, given a little time. I also am interested in translating science engagingly for a broad audience.

Styles and Tools

• Creative nonfiction/long-form essay
• Humor, including parody, satire, and pun-filled writing
• Health and science news
• Research summary or literature review and analysis (epidemiology, nutrition, etc.)
• Research paper (e.g. epidemiological study)
• Blog post
• Social media
• Fiction
• Profile/biography
• Graphic design (InDesign, Photoshop)
• Editing (especially Chicago Manual of Style)
