I’m a second-year MBA candidate at the University of Michigan’s Stephen M. Ross School of Business, where I focus on strategy and management at the nexus of technology, media and business. In a sentence, I’m here to help people realize their full online potential.

Prior to Ross I worked at Slate Magazine as a senior interface developer, coordinating editorial, advertising and technology teams for the award-winning web magazine. Before Slate I worked at TIME Magazine Online as a lead web producer on day-to-day news and news specials, including the 2004 elections, Iraq war coverage and Person of the Year editions. I graduated from the Medill School of Journalism at Northwestern University with a B.S.J. in 2002. More professional information is available on my resumé, online work and bylines pages.

When I’m not working the Internets, I like exploring near or far, running and lifting, talking history and politics, checking out new music, writing, scuba and too-spicy foods. And as a Pittsburgh native, I represent for my hometown Steelers and Penguins. My lovely wife G and I live in Chicago with our full complement of pets.
