I am the Editor-at-Large of The Agonist, which is a true labor of love.

My previous "job" afforded me the opportunity to travel in a host of wonderful, strange and sometimes exotic countries: Belize, Georgia, Azerbaijan, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, Nepal, India, Guatemala, Belgium, The Netherlands, France, Greece, Spain, Germany, Switzerland, The Czech Republic, Bulgaria, Macedonia, Turkey, Italy, Canada, Mexico, Austria, England, Ireland, Russia, China, Taiwan, Japan and Korea.

My "business" travels awakened me to the true luxury of freelance travel writing, hence I am pursuing this full time. As a history student I learned the value that context adds to a story. While traveling I learned how valuable "atmosphere" could be. So, I am currently researching a book on Central Asia and the Silk Road.
