Part of what makes writers' jobs easier is knowing we can reach out to sources for articles. Because the majority of what I write are reported pieces (in which I interview at least one person), I rely heavily on relationship-building and networking, and why I never hesitate when I'm asked to be interviewed for a podcast or an article. Here are a few of the podcasts and articles I've been interviewed for.
If you would like to interview me, please reach out.
Cannabis
In April 2023, I was interviewed by B.C. Wehman and Dustin Kava for their podcast, Because Cannabis. We talked about the powerful medicinal benefits, social equity, the legacy market and the chickens on my farm that kept inserting themselves into the discussion.

I was interviewed by Canadian cannabis journalist Jessica McKeil for my thoughts about cannabis suppositories for Cannabis & Tech Today.
Danielle Simone Brand LeMond interviewed me for this piece for Newsreview.
