Picture of the Day


The Meredith brothers (August 2000). Scott is 13 1/2 and I am almost 22 1/2 in this picture. I remember the circumstances quite well. I had been living in Washington, DC since January 2000, interning first for the Chicago Tribune (January-May) and then for US News & World Report in their "New Media" department (May-August). And it was finally time to return to IU-Bloomington and finish my degree work. I drove up from DC with all of my belongings smushed into a compact rental car and I deposited some things @ home in River Edge, NJ/picked up some other necessities. I was home for a half day and then hit the road for Indiana. The Twins jersey I'm wearing was a 21st birthday gift from my friends Ashley Shelby and Sean Bartel.

About Me

My photo
I am a researcher, reporter and conference producer with experience spanning the aerospace & defense, biopharma, chemical, consumer electronics, energy, homeland security, human resources and IT markets.

In January I rejoined Worldwide Business Research, where I serve as program manager for Consumer Returns, SCMchem and the Digital Travel Summit.

I have an M.S. in science and medical journalism from Boston University (Dec 2008) and did my undergraduate work at Indiana University, majoring in journalism and political science (May 2001). After interning for the Chicago Tribune as a collegian, I landed my first real gig in the Windy City: I was a senior technology writer for I-Street magazine (Sept 2001-Feb 2003). I covered nanotech and biotech startups. From March-November 2003, I worked for a newsletter publisher (Exchange Monitor Publications) in DC, covering congressional hearings, the NRC & DHS.
