My Work, AKA “Clips”
Calling these “clips” is a little archaic since most of my work is digital (thanks, internet!) but for sake of argument, “clips” they shall be. From print and magazine work to podcasts to TV appearances to many, many articles online, here’s a decent cross-section of what I do. All of the following are awesome.
