Hi! I am a freelance writer based out of New Orleans, LA. I cover local news and politics, environmental issues and music and culture. I have written long-form editorial-style pieces, as well as shorter news-based coverage.
Does New Orleans' recycling really get recycled? An investigation reveals that only a small portion of plastics are recyclable within New Orleans' recycling program. Through interviews with zero-waste advocates as well as people working within the processing industry, it turns out that international politics, individual habits and the fossil fuel industry all have a role in New Orleans recycling.
A conservation-themed conference called on artists and representatives of Mardi Gras krewes to ask the question: how can the future of Mardi Gras be more sustainable? As tons of plastic throws and food containers are used each year, historians and members of the community gathered to discuss artistic ways to preserve the culture of Mardi Gras as well as its environment.
In which I explore the history and politics of Americorps, the USA's civilian service corps, through research as well as my personal experience working for eleven months with the program.
