I am a writer based in New York with over 20 years of experience reporting on technology and business. I have a special interest in research that makes a successful transition from the laboratory to the commercial world. I report on public policy and business developments that allow new technology to flourish—or not.

As a writer and editor I am skilled at explaining to both specialized and lay readers how things work and why new technological advances matter. My special interests are healthcare, IT, sensors, advanced materials and energy. I have written about how developments in these areas have made a difference in wide ranging industries such as healthcare, transportation and port security.
