Hello! I am a journalist, editor, and historian.

I’ve been an editor and writer at CNET, The Daily Beast, Newsweek, Politics Daily, and Slate. My essays and reporting have also appeared in The New Republic, New York, The Chronicle of Higher Education, The Point, Jacobin, Dissent, Commonweal, and a few others I've probably forgotten. I've written about almost every subject imaginable, but my work has especially focused on U.S. politics, religion, labor, and LGBT issues.

Alongside my media career, I earned my PhD in intellectual history, which explored social scientists as public intellectuals and political organizers in the U.S. and Europe. I was Visiting Assistant Professor of History at Boston College and a fellow at the Clough Center for Constitutional Democracy. Some of my scholarly work is forthcoming in Cold War Liberalism: Power in a Time of Emergency (Cambridge University Press, 2026).
