March issue of ATM now available!

The final issue from my internship with Albuquerque The Magazine is now on newstands. I'm excited for you all to finally see it! Pick up your copy at any Albuquerque Flying Star or Satellite location.

My articles include: (1) a We Try It (p. 334) about scuba diving lessons (and pictures of me in a wetsuit--oh my!); (2) a Passenger Window (p. 347) about the old Creamland Dairy building located on Coal Avenue and the story behind the mural by the very talented Albuquerque artist Gayle Van Horn; (3) (my personal fav) a "Trendspotting: All that sparkles!" (p. 330) featuring fabulous and shiny sequined accessories; (4) a Q&A for ShelfLife (p. 278) with Rio Rancho author Annam Manthiram about her new book, After the Tsunami; (5) a Creatives profile (p. 274) with the master colorist and printmaker Jacob Tarazon-Matteson (who debuts his new print series at New Grounds Print Workshop & Gallery on Friday, March 16); and (6) a sidebar for the Top Docs cover story (p. 135) about a cutting-edge cure for cancer (spoiler alert: it relates to something I'm terrified of...).

My internship was one for the record books. I had a blast exploring the Duke City and sharing the best of it with readers. Oh, how I want to write full-time for a lifestyle magazine in the future!
