I'm an editor and writer based in New York.

I currently work as an editor at NPR Music, where I assign, edit and write reviews, features, interviews, breaking news and more for NPR.org. I’m also the editor for the podcast Alt.Latino, work on the project Turning the Tables and am a regular commentator on the podcast All Songs Considered.

Previously I was the pop culture reporter at Jezebel, where I wrote longform features and criticism on music, film, television, internet culture and more. Before that, I was a music journalist and critic for MTV News and a founding staff writer for the teen website Rookie magazine.

My reporting and criticism have been published in The Los Angeles Times, Pitchfork, Rolling Stone, Grantland, The New York Times Magazine, The Hairpin, Vulture, NYLON, ELLE, among others.
