Professional Experience
I've flown a small plane myself to get burgers, fed a sloth, and held a decellularized heart in my hand. And that was just last year. I'll go anywhere and do anything to get a story that stands out from the crowd. My next journey: Xinjiang to report on the world's oldest cheese.
