About

I'm a freelance journalist whose story from Nigeria on a national strategy to prevent newborn umbilical cord infections won first place in the public health category of the Association of Health Care Journalists' annual contest. In 2020, I wrote a long piece about a violence intervention program at Washington Hospital Center for "violence recidivists" — people who are repeatedly shot or stabbed and keep returning to the trauma bay. I wrote the obituary of former Rep. Ron Dellums for the Washington Post; and have also written recently about tiny homes in Detroit for Politico, military medicine for Health Affairs, transit-oriented development, green roofs, musicians and ivory, tunneling technology, Toots Thielemans, synthetic meat, the Tampa Bay Times, jazz steel drummer Victor Provost, and bread baker Mark Furstenberg.
