A reporter and magazine writer with ten years of experience, I look for stories that combine important issues with great characters. Recently I've written for New York Magazine, BusinessWeek, and the New York Times on subjects ranging from hedge funds to malpractice lawsuits to the advertising business. Earlier, I was a senior writer at Fortune, where I wrote investigative stories and profiles of major public figures. I helped spearhead the magazine's coverage of corporate corruption and wrote two of the three cover stories in the package that made Fortune a National Magazine Award finalist for General Excellence in 2003. I graduated from Yale University, with a B.A. in Philosophy.
