Hello! I’m a journalist and editor. While I’m interested in everything from the history of textiles to Gettier problems, my work primarily falls under the field of science and technology studies, particularly information infrastructures and issues of quantification and classification. I want to understand the systems we use to organize and shape reality.

Currently, I am the ideas editor at WIRED. Previously, I was a staff reporter at The Wall Street Journal, Vox Media’s The Verge, and MIT Technology Review. My reporting and essays have also appeared in The New York Times, The Atlantic, The Guardian, Paris Review, Chronicle of Higher Education, Lapham's Quarterly, National Geographic, and more.
​
During my time as a science reporter at The Verge, I began a project exploring the role of sexual attraction in Western culture. The result is Ace: What Asexuality Reveals About Desire, Society, and the Meaning of Sex, which was named one of the Best Books of 2020 by NPR, Electric Literature, and Them.
