I'm honored to be nominated for a James Beard Foundation Award for investigative reporting. I found out I was a finalist while nursing my nine-week-old son. When we published these stories, I was eight weeks pregnant. This one's for you, kiddo❤️

I haven’t been online much this week, and just learned Paul La Farge died. I studied with him at Wesleyan. He was such a wonderful teacher, and always so warm when we ran into each other, no matter how long it had been. Such a loss

Guess I’ve assimilated to Los Angeles because after I felt the earthquake last night, I went right back to sleep and completely forgot about it until now.

Ryan is one of the best in this business, and another person I loved getting to moonlight on edits for. Solidarity my friend 🌺.
my work as a food critic and reporter at eater was my life's work and i'm so immensely proud of what i've accomplished here at vox media over nearly nine years. today was my last day as the company lays off 7 percent of the workforce. i'll continue to remain anonymous lol.

Over my time at Eater, I’ve run a city site, edited longform features and packages, shot original photography, co-produced a video series, and published more essays, guides, and features than I can count. I’ve also tackled two major investigative projects.

My partner and I are so excited to become parents. I had looked forward to sharing this news in a much happier context, and I can’t really process the amount of uncertainty we’re now facing.
