I'm a freelance culture writer with a passion for and emphasis on (but certainly not limited to!) action film. My work has been published in various online publications, such as Vulture, Inverse, GQ UK, Polygon, Fangoria, and The Playlist.
Professionally, I am a Chicago-based writer, performer, and consultant. Personally, I am a lover of movies, music, baking, drawing, gardening, and spending quality time with a generous sphere of loved ones.
I write, mainly on film, and have bylines in Cinema Scope, Mubi's Notebook, Film Comment, Cineaste, and Reverse Shot. I used to be an electrical engineer but am currently a graduate student at York University.
