Overview

As a writer for Space Scout, I cover space news for a technical audience. I bring a voice that balances enthusiasm for the tremendous future being built across the industry with a critical eye for the boldest claims, underlaid by a focus on getting the technical details right.

That thoughtful perspective is what keeps readers coming back to Space Scout. It's made possible, of course, by an obsession with the technical. The kind of thoughtful, nuanced insight Space Scout has been providing for years is impossible without it.

Coverage & Articles

Blue Origin NG2: I covered the second flight, and first successful landing, of Blue Origin's New Glenn rocket.

Artemis II: I provided in-person coverage of NASA's historic Artemis II launch at the Johnson Space Center. Across four flight days, I participated in press conferences, produced multimedia content, wrote articles, and interviewed NASA Subject Matter Experts on everything from lunar science to the Orion Crew Survival System.
