Somewhere at the crossroads of belief, culture, and politics, there is real magic.
Welcome. I’m a journalist, writer, editor, and award-winning author based in Atlanta, Georgia. My work has mostly been focused on the areas of religion, the occult, pop culture, film, and witchcraft.
I also love telling the stories that lift up voices not typically heard and highlight the faces not typically seen.

Lights, CAmera, Witchcraft:
A Critical History of witches in American film and television
Winner of a 2022 gold COVR award!
The witch as a cultural archetype has existed in some form since the beginning of recorded history. Her nature had changed through technological developments and sociocultural shifts.
The award-winning book Lights, Camera, Witchcraft traces the figure of the witch through American cinematic history from 1896 to 2020 with an analysis of the entertainment industry’s shifting boundaries concerning expressions of femininity. Focusing on films and television series from Bewitched to The Craft, the book looks at how the witch reflects changing gender roles, religion, the modern practice of witchcraft, and female agency.
