I’m a writer originally from New York, now based in Pittsburgh, PA. I’m a contributor at Artforum, The Art Newspaper, Whitehot Magazine, Newcity, Pittsburgh Jewish Chronicle, YNST, and a number of other local and national outlets. I also founded my own arts and culture publication, Petrichor, a web magazine focused on essayistic art writing in Pittsburgh that has published weekly since 2023.
In the past, I was Online Editor at TABLE Magazine and Managing Editor at UP Magazine. I have won two Simon Rockower Awards from the American Jewish Press Association for Excellence in Arts and Culture Reporting for my work with the Pittsburgh Jewish Chronicle, where I continue to cover local community stories. I also received a Women’s Press Club of Pittsburgh Helen Fallon Young Communicator Award and a Creative Entrepreneur Accelerator Grant from the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania for Petrichor.
Currently, I work in boutique wine sales at a neighborhood wine bar in Pittsburgh. I hold a WSET Level 2 certification and am passionate about wine as a site for cross-cultural exchange. I value having a professional practice outside of writing and have held many odd jobs, including in the galleries at the Carnegie Museum, as an usher at New York’s Bowery Poetry Club, as a contract book designer for a publishing house, a hostess at a bohemian tea bar, and on the content team for travel YouTuber Drew Binsky—the youngest person to visit all 197 countries. I also self-published a novel, which you can find online. Whatever I’m up to, I’m passionate about telling stories and investigating the mystery that is being alive.
