I am a freelance writer who lives in Southern California. I have also worked as a broadcast journalist for almost a decade.  My stories have appeared on CNN, and National Public Radio programs like Morning Edition, Day-to-Day, All Things Considered, and Weekend Edition. The online magazine WeddingChickie.com recently published my personal essay "Vegas, Baby, Vegas."  I am also the author, along with my dog Bodhi, of a political blog called "The Bodhi Politic" at www.bodhilovesyou.blogspot.com
