I’m a staff writer at New York magazine’s The Strategist, where I cover travel.

I was previously the features editor at PAPER, where I wrote celebrity cover stories and reported on stan culture.

I have a Substack about the movies I watch on free streaming services, and another one where I write literary criticism about cookbooks.

I was born in Tauranga, Aotearoa, and grew up in Boorloo, Whadjuk Noongar Boodjar. I live in Brooklyn.

Open to all correspondence — essay-length apologies from ex-lovers preferred, press releases also okay:
