I'm an award-winning copywriter, author, and journalist who's had the privilege of writing for The New York Times Magazine, Buzzfeed, IBM, Wealthsimple, and other great companies and publications. My first book, All the Wrong Moves, a memoir about my chess career, was published by Doubleday and received rave reviews from the Washington Post and the Wall Street Journal. I live my life in search of the well-chosen words that can make the commonplace compelling or transform complexity into elegance.
