My writing and research reflects my omnivorous appetite for social patterns and ideas.

I write white papers, blog posts, and website content on topics ranging from small business features to cultural criticism. I also edit a wide range of materials, from websites to scholarly work, including book chapters, conference presentations, and dissertations.

I have a Ph.D. in music history and theory from The University of Chicago. Before that I was a concert flutist and before that I dreamed of being a dancer. I have taken the scenic route professionally, and the journey has been full of riches.
