I spent far too much of my life uninspired. I grew up without any true passions, any desire to make an impact on the world. Writing has since become my way of not only making sense of everything, but reaching others who are also trying to find that connection.

This drive has led to writing and editing roles at small-town newspapers and national magazines, but I have now moved on to writing about what saved my life: art. Movies, music, television, books, paintings—all of the art that surrounds my everyday is constantly reshaping me and my understanding of the world, and I want to share that with everybody. Art can be as powerful as you allow it to be, and stories have this incredible ability to shift the zeitgeist. I want to be in step with those changes the entire way, and I hope you’ll join me.
