Feature stories and mission-driven reporting by Texas-based journalist and writer.

I grew up on the banks of the Guadalupe River in South Central Texas, went to high school, attended a small liberal arts college were I received a BA in English, and now I write for a living.

From covering a natural disaster in a small community, celebrating the 20th anniversary of the cult-classic "Napoleon Dynamite" to the construction of a local all-inclusive playground, no story is too big or small for me to tackle.
