I'm so jealous I didn't think of this/write this (s/o @PLUnderwood ) texasmonthly.com/arts-entert…, but perhaps even more jealous this kind of job exists and I don't have it.
New: My debut for @TexasMonthly, a Made in Texas piece about Kistler Rods. texasmonthly.com/travel/kist…
I had the honor of talking with artist @jonflaming1 for @stetsonusa about art, inspiration and, of course, hats. Check it out here: blog.stetson.com/texas-artis…
I wrote for the annual 52 Places list in @nytimestravel about why you should visit one of my favorite American cities, Louisville, in 2023 — from an emerging LGBTQ+ scene to a new hotel with Austin vibes. nytimes.com/interactive/2023…
So I collaborated with @KenBurns on a new project. Well, sort of. I worked on the new book Ralph Lauren's Polo Shirt. And he wrote the foreword. So we're basically creative partners now. Read about the book and the shirt in my latest for @RalphLauren: ralphlauren.com/rlmag/ralph-…
Re-posting my article on how to talk about the news with your kids, in case it's helpful to anyone right now.

"Taken together, their work amounts to a large-scale renaissance, and critique, of one of the country’s most distinct artforms, one that feels both out of time and of the moment." ralphlauren.com/rlmag/ralph-…
I recently had the honor of speaking with some artists who are considering (and reconsidering) the American West. My latest for the online magazine of @RalphLauren: ralphlauren.com/rlmag/ralph-…
I recently "Yes, and"-ed my way through a conversation about improv and parenting with @nameehan of @BACTheatre for her podcast, Creative Parenting. Please have a listen here: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcas…
I spoke with the incomparable @hseanbrock for @billy_reid about his professional and personal journey, his hard-earned passion for life and health, and his years-in-the-making new restaurant, Audrey. Inspiring and fun. Please read: billyreid.com/blogs/in-the-s…
I had the privilege of writing about paper artist Tiffanie Turner for @RalphLauren. Her story is fascinating (she was left at the altar! she did burlesque!) and her work is awe-inspiring. I hope you'll read it: ralphlauren.com/rlmag/ralph-…

One set of buyers even purchased a house without air-conditioning. In Texas. In the summer.

I talked with @whoisluka — the model/actor/artist with 2.6m Instagram followers — about his latest role: Starring in the new campaign for Ralph's Club, the new fragrance from Polo Ralph Lauren. We discussed style, representation and his favorite Polo Bear: ralphlauren.com/rlmag/ralph-…
How crazy is Austin's real estate market? One house received 96 offers in a single weekend. Read all about it in my first piece for @curbed:

Thanks to my sources at @abor_realtors, @Zondahome, @morelandprops (among others), and to @swerdle for the editorial guidance throughout the process.
Honored to share my first piece for @ACLGLF, on the charming renovation of Austin's beloved Butler Pitch & Putt — and my wayward, club-throwing youth. Thanks to @acontinuouslean for letting me play through. aclgolf.com/story/keep-austi…
Need something to read this season? I made seven suggestions for RL Mag, including a whimsical collection on baseball, a celebration of weather vanes (!), and the story of the first all-Black squad to win the National Interscholastic Polo Championship.
