writing

I love writing, and I enjoy driving anything I can get behind the wheel of. (The most unique was a 1948 GE diesel locomotive).

I’ve written features, new vehicle reviews, interviews, news posts, listicles, and in-depth buyer’s guides, to name a few.

My passion is telling stories. I got my start writing professionally for Motor Trend magazine, where I worked on their Buyer’s Guide (print and online), features, and news from 2014 to 2016.

Since becoming a freelance writer in 2016, I’ve written six print buyer’s guides for Diesel Power magazine, and various features for Super Street (print and online), Automobile (online), and Hagerty (online). I’ve also done Best of, how-to articles, and product reviews for The Drive.

Here are some samples of my work:
