Editor, Writer & Newsletter Strategist
Previously, I was the head newsletter editor at CoinDesk and a senior editor at a news startup.
And before that, at The New Yorker, I edited and produced several newsletters and edited for newyorker.com and Goings On About Town in print.
I’ve written about culture, foreign policy, international affairs, and politics for Grid, The New Yorker, Pacific Standard, Latterly, and other magazines and publications. See more of my writing below.
In my latest for Pacific Standard, I take a deeper look at why the U.S.’ problem with managing Saudi Arabia is largely one of its own making—and what this means for the escalating Saudi-Iranian rift.
Aside from the obvious ramifications, there’s an equally disquieting undercurrent to this whole episode: The U.S. government had implored Saudi officials not to follow through with Nimr’s execution behind closed doors.
