Currently, I'm the director of brand journalism for Entrepreneurs' Organization, a global nonprofit. I'm also a veteran contributing writer for Sports Illustrated, and I have a wealth of experience covering sports, business and higher ed for national publications, specializing in immersive narrative stories and detailed enterprise pieces. (I promise I'm not as stuffy in person as that sounded.) In addition to SI, stops along the way have included BusinessWeek, U.S. News & World Report, the NCAA's magazine and Turner Sports. 
 
Here's the requisite shameless self-promotion: I am a three-time Livingston Awards finalist, have won a pair of National Headliner Awards for magazine feature writing, have garnered "notable" recognition four times in The Year's Best Sports Writing book series, and was a finalist for both the 2023 and 2024 Jenkins Medal for Excellence in Sportswriting. 
 
My work has also been honored by the U.S. Basketball Writers Association, Indiana Society of Professional Journalists, and, intermittently, by my wife. Our shiba inu remains indifferent.
