I edited a book, From Cairo to Wall Street: Voices from the Global Springwith Anya Schiffrin (New York: The New Press, 2012).

I co-designed and edited Communique, the newspaper of Columbia’s School of International and Public Affairs, throughout 2008.

I researched and wrote for There Will Be Ink (PDF), a study of journalism on the extractive industries in Ghana, Uganda and Nigeria, which I coauthored along with several other Columbia students and Columbia professor Anya Schiffrin.
