About Me
I'm a journalist focusing on covering music and internet culture. I was previously a staff writer for The Verge and I've written for NME, Alternative Press, Billboard, VICE, Stereogum, Slate, and Kerrang!, along with other publications. I cover rock, pop, pop-punk, metalcore and TikTok, among other things.
I also write fiction. My debut novel, Every Version Ends in Death, will be out on October 19. You can find out more about the book and preorder it here.
