CommonWealth is a one-of-a-kind magazine of Massachusetts politics and public policy, published by the nonpartisan think tank MassINC. As associate editor, I wrote and edited cover stories, major features and front- and back-of-the-book pieces on a wide range of topics affecting the daily lives of people across the state: education, criminal justice, economic development, housing, environmental issues, government and politics. I helped to plan and execute each issue of the magazine from conception to publication.
