Though I was a music journalist doing short pieces for Playboy, I consider the Esquire piece below as my first real story. And it got me out of Buffalo!
​
Below that is a cover story in The Industry Standard for which I won the Western Publishers Award, the Maggie. 

Then, here's one of many travel journalism pieces, this one from Blue. It's a cover story for a trip to South Africa to dive for great white sharks (which I found stunningly beautiful and not scary).

Finally, there's a selection of stories I did for New York, The New York Times, Entertainment Weekly, Time, Talk, and elsewhere.
