I write about colleges and universities, history, [un]popular culture, interesting people doing interesting things, connections, communities, nostalgia, music (lots of Prince and Dolly Parton), crime, fashion, beauty, books, and more.

Many, many, oh so many articles for Hampshire College and Grunge and Glam and Rare and Wide Open Country.

Co-editor of the damn good pop culture (and more!) newsletter Two Bossy Dames.

Former Mortified producer, eternal fan of making stories out of juvenilia.

Former day jobs include librarian, director of information, information specialist, data curator, data specialist, warehouse associate, research associate, adult ed teacher, project manager, publishing assistant, record store clerk, and arts and crafts counselor. Former employers include Hampshire College, Mount Holyoke College, Boston College, Harvard University, Harvard Medical School, Holyoke Community College, a textbook publisher, a biotech startup, and a pharmaceutical company, somehow.
