REPORTING
I've been writing and reporting since co-founding my high school's satirical underground paper in 1992. While I've spent more time as an editor than as a writer, I'm comfortable tackling almost anything. I've written and reported for daily papers including the Wisconsin State Journal and The Christian Science Monitor, interviewed dozens of authors and cartoonists, reported news stories in Jerusalem and the West Bank, and completed a long feature about The Onion for UW-Madison's alumni magazine.
