About

Hi there. I’m a writer, journalist, and editor. My last name sounds like “skeery.”

Currently, I’m the deputy editor of Nieman Lab, part of the Nieman Foundation for Journalism at Harvard University. (If you’re doing something innovative and interesting in journalism, I want to hear about it.) In the past, I’ve worked for the Tow Center for Digital Journalism at Columbia University, Farrar, Straus & Giroux, and The New York Times. You can usually find me in New Hampshire or Boston, along with my partner, Ben, and our dog.

I occasionally write freelance pieces, so editors should feel free to be in touch.

Subscribe to my newsletter for updates and book recommendations — or find me on Twitter, LinkedIn, and Instagram. (I am also experimenting with accounts on Mastodon and Post.)
