Experience
Contributing Writer
Jul 1998 — Present · GB
Contributing Writer (1997-Present): New York Times, L.A. Times, Seattle Times, University of Washington Magazine, VICE, The Guardian, Grantland, ESPN, Rolling Stone, No Depression, L.A. Weekly, America’s Best Racing. For the New York Times, I’ve painted portraits of \"walktail\" culture & panic-buying camper vans during a pandemic, Washington state\'s foremost wine-producing region, the emerging \"pet aquamation\" industry, the cult of the Lincoln Town Car, how Lake of the Ozarks compares to its namesake Netflix hit, Las Vegas\' most un-Vegas neighborhood, the surging popularity of the outdoor-education industry, and Vegas in the aftermath of the deadliest mass shooting in U.S. history, for which I won a Society of American Travel Writers Award. I wrote the most recent \"36 Hours in Seattle\" for the Travel section, and my story about Boeing\'s MAX 8 crisis made the front page of the national section. I\'ve also contributed numerous stories to the L.A. Times, and for L.A. Weekly, paeans to America’s classiest dive bar, Chez Jay and the late, great Hollywood Park. Also, I\'ve penned pieces on the greatest intramural bike race in America for Grantland and the great Austin (TX) singer-songwriter James McMurtry for No Depression, as well as an exploration of Whidbey Island’s peculiar telephone booths for the Seattle Times’ Sunday magazine.
