In 2016, I joined the American Medical Association as manager of physician communications.

My principal duty in that role is to serve as editor of news stories that are published on the AMA website. These articles also are featured in the AMA Morning Rounds email newsletter, which reaches more than 250,000 subscribers five days a week, and AMA social media accounts that together have more than 1.3 million followers.

Here is a complete archive of my bylined work for the site.
