WRITING —
Slowing ideas down

I started writing because projects and runs often ended before I had figured out what they meant. On the page, I can stay with the awkward parts longer, test the story I told myself, and translate an environmental problem into something a reader might actually feel.

Selected Projects

Running and Nature Blog

On Step by Step, Stride by Stride, I publish essays that begin with long-distance running, hiking, or endurance and wander into climate change, sustainability, and our relationship with nature.
