About

I’m a journalist and essayist who has written for Harper’s, The New Yorker, The New York Times Magazine, Granta, the New Republic, and Vice, among many others. I’m a recipient of support from the Pulitzer Center on Crisis Reporting and was once called a “brilliant young Southern writer” by the Oxford American. I live in Los Angeles, where I help run a native plant nursery. My first book is called Chosen Country: A Rebellion in the West.
