News & Features

I’m a reporter with a taste for stories that slip between the cracks — social, political, and cultural angles that don’t get the attention they deserve.

I combine a nose for news with photography and web skills to produce stories that reach the top of the SERPs and stick with readers.

I shoot with DSLR gear and deliver full reporting packages: written pieces, photos, data breakdowns, and short video when needed

I’m a dual American–Canadian living in Buenos Aires, with Argentine citizenship on the way.

I’m fluent in Spanish and have more than two decades of experience in Latin America both in the Southern Cone and Central America.

My reporting has taken me from environmental fallout around Lake Victoria to U.S. drug-policy fights and daily life inside a Buenos Aires villa. I’ve covered breaking news — from plane crashes to background reporting during the Columbine shooting — but my best work is long-form, built on deep research.

I amplify voices across the spectrum from those living on the fringes to prominent figures in the arts.

I hold a BA in Global Studies with a photojournalism concentration from Long Island University’s Friends World Program and completed a one-year documentary film course with the Argentine Film Industry Union.

I also founded Wander Argentina, one of Argentina’s top-ranking independent travel sites.

Available Stories I’m Working on Now: 

A Fugitive & Lifelong Criminal Living the Good Life in South America 

A longtime U.S. fugitive who spent years safely beyond the reach of American authorities in Latin America may now be extraditable after serving prison time in Argentina — but nobody appears to have noticed.

Like Paul Merle Eischeid and Kurt Sonnenfeld it’s a story of evading consequences in plain sight.

I have court documents from two countries going back decades and at least one victim willing to talk. 

MN NGO Mini-Empire Fooling a Community 

On paper, it’s a Minnesota charity with a sterling public reputation.

Up close, it looks more like a family non-profit enterprise with built-in tax exempt status. 

With relatives and friends cycled through board member roles, and financial documents with errors so glaring it’s a wonder they have huge institutional funders.

An example of how whole communities can be hoodwinked by small nonprofits that serve as vehicles for self-glorification, activism and private enrichment.

Aid Worker’s Death Abroad Was Not What It Seemed

The mysterious overseas death of an American aid worker during the Iraq War, initially presented with a tidy narrative. 

A contemporary re-examination of footage raises serious questions about the circumstances — and the subsequent framing of the tragedy. 

This piece explores how a young, idealistic American civilian was recruited for a high-risk mission in a conflict zone — funded by Congress in this case — and ended up paying the ultimate price.

This is one segment of a larger project investigating how young American activists are put in harm’s way by well-funded organizations that trade on the moral authority of civilian activists while exposing them to risks their leadership never seems to face.

Below are digitized versions of sample of my news and feature stories, recovered from old hard drives during the early 2020s lockdowns.
