"Day Job": Digital journalist, currently a free agent.

What are you cooking up now? I've had a thing for kale recently, and spicy stuff, like pepperjack cheese and chorizo. Whatever soaks up flavor, and whatever gives that flavor a kick.

Why do you do what you do? If you could see how I get when I stumble on something fun and buzzworthy, you wouldn't have to ask ;)

My profession inspires me because... it exposes me to fascinating people and fascinating communities and gives me the perfect excuse to try to figure out what makes them tick. And it never lets me get comfortable. There's always something new to try.

Trover is... great for anyone who loves serendipity. Sometimes I get to a neighborhood and I just want to know what's cool -- period. Categories slow me down, both when I share and when I search.

Trover tip: Edit your photos before you upload them to make them really stand out. I use Camera+. The "Clarity" filter is fantastic.

My best discovery ever is: Franklin Falls. My brother and I waded out closer than anyone else there dared. The spray was cold and loud and fast. It took our breath away.
