I'm a journalist based in Venice, California. This page is typically home to news, features and random concepts I find interesting around the Web. Sometimes there's a little self-promotion of my work at EW.com.
This blog also features images and ideas from my March 2009 trip cross-country from Washington, D.C. to Los Angeles.
