When a Microphone Becomes a Bridge
Ever wonder what it's like to be the only Jewish kid explaining Hanukkah to a classroom in Fargo, North Dakota? That early experience of cultural translation planted a seed-one that would eventually grow into a career built on helping people listen across divides. Standing at that classroom podium wasn't just about dreidels and latkes. It was about learning to make the unfamiliar feel accessible, to invite people into worlds they'd never encountered. Years later, coming out at sixteen during Oregon's ugly Measure 9 campaign-which tried to equate homosexuality with pedophilia-meant refusing to hide. Decorating a high school locker with postcards of shirtless men wasn't rebellion for its own sake. It was a declaration: this is who I am, and I won't live in two separate worlds. These boundary-crossing moments became the foundation for something bigger-a journalistic approach that prioritizes empathy over judgment, that hands the microphone to voices typically unheard. Whether interviewing prison guards struggling to make ends meet or undocumented workers risking everything for a better life, the goal remains the same: help people see the full humanity in those they might otherwise dismiss.
