I wrote for ABC News and The Jerusalem Report, served in the Peace Corps in Senegal, taught English in Japan, was a French interpreter for African refugees, and earned degrees in journalism and religion from Boston University and Columbia, respectively. After studying law at CUNY, I was a public defender in Florida. This turned me into a criminal mischief maker, putting up street art in Amsterdam and New York (named in Best of Brooklyn Street Art 2011). Most recently, I worked as a document review attorney at Google HQ, where I learned terrible corporate secrets revealed in my novel, Too Long Don't Read. I am recovering in a tiny cabin in the redwood forest.
