I am a writer and editor based in Washington, D.C., where I am currently managing editor of Philanthropy, the flagship publication of the Philanthropy Roundtable. The Roundtable is a national association of charitable individuals and foundations working to promote freedom, opportunity, and personal responsibility through their giving. I also edit the Roundtable’s website, guidebooks, and other publications.

Before joining the Philanthropy Roundtable, I was an associate editor at the American Enterprise Institute, where I wrote and edited a wide range of publications, updated the think tank’s website, and worked on social media projects. During that time, I created a blog on aviation policy, which is no longer active but whose archives I keep available. In 2009-2010, I was an inaugural Washington Fellow of the National Review Institute.

I have published freelance articles and reviews on aviation policy, philanthropy, and a wide range of other topics in the Wall Street Journal, Forbes.com, The Weekly Standard, The American, TCS Daily, and other outlets, and I write for the National Geographic Bee. I received my B.A. in history and political science from Tulane University in New Orleans, where I worked as disaster relief coordinator for a neighborhood church after Hurricane Katrina.
