I’m a lifelong American journalist now specializing in multimedia environmental & public affairs reporting for print/web.

Also a journalism professor at Miami University in Oxford, Ohio, and its study away locales in Florence, Italy; Differdange, Luxembourg; and in Central America.

My previous news media employers: The Cincinnati Enquirer, Cincy magazine, Star-Gazette, The Ithaca Journal, former Middlesex News in Framingham, Mass., and the former Kansas City Times.

Stalk me on LinkedIn.

Though my passion will always be high-quality journalism, I’ve a newfound love for teaching environmental communication to science undergrad and graduate students. Scientists can change the world if they embrace kick-ass ways to connect with the public.
