I’m a freelance writer and editor living in the San Francisco Bay Area. My decade-plus-long journalism career included stints as the Editor-in-Chief, Co-Editor, and Managing Editor of the East Bay Express in Oakland and the Managing Editor of The Stranger in Seattle. My byline has also appeared in The Nation, the San Francisco Chronicle, SF Weekly, Bay Nature, Alta Journal, High Country News, and KoreAm Journal.
