Writing
“Of course I wanted to know. I was a writer. I wanted to know everything.”
– Gregory David Roberts, Shantaram
Thanks for checking out my online writing portfolio.
As a writer, photographer, and sketch artist, I am available for a variety of freelance assignments, but my passions are travel, adventure and cultural immersion. I’ve written features, essays, columns, travel destination and service pieces, luxury hotel reviews, and news round-ups.
In 2008, I graduated Phi Beta Kappa from the University of Virginia with a BA in English with distinction. In 2012, I finished my Masters in Travel Writing with distinction from London’s Kingston University, where I was also awarded the Faber & Faber Creative Writing MA Prize.
