Some Writing

(in no particular order)

I've spent over a decade working as a professional writer, and my work has appeared in newspapers, magazines, alt-weeklies, YouTube videos, and more websites than I'm capable of remembering. Below is a smattering of the work that has been preserved, and hasn't been completely blasted down the Internet's collective memory hole.
