My work as the managing editor of The Homepage, a community newspaper, focuses on serving the needs of my readers, particularly those who are vulnerable to environmental racism, displacement, food insecurity and general neglect by the institutions of society. My freelance work has largely revolved around breaking through the isolation and confusion people experience around disabilities, mental illness and developmental delays, especially as those intersect with social inequity. I want all of my readers to be informed, connected and confident so they can create fuller and more meaningful lives for themselves, their families and communities.
