I'm a Canadian freelance journalist, writer and photographer based in Brussels and regularly in Istanbul, covering mostly Turkey since 2014, though I've also reported from the Balkans, east Africa and Canada. I have a Master of Journalism from Carleton University in Ottawa and a Master of Arts in Political Science from the University of Waterloo in Waterloo-Kitchener. My reporting has consisted primarily of feature and analytical articles covering politics, human rights abuses and minority issues. All photos on this site are mine.
