“This is an energetic novel with plenty of valuable commentary about the dangers of data mining and excessive technology use wrapped in an entertaining mystery…. A solid story with an important message.”–Kirkus Reviews
“Eleanor is the perfect hero for our time. She’s fought a nefarious internet mega-company on its way to taking over the earth and beyond, and now she’s helping her 7th grade protégé stand up to cliques and uncover a middle school mystery. Eleanor is a fearless investigative radio reporter who solves mysteries, unmasks villains, and foils their schemes. Make sure to check out the Eleanor Amplified podcast, if you haven’t already. Tune in for the adventure and the fantastic cast and sound design. Stay to hear the Fresh Air team voicing the crowd scenes.”–Terry Gross, Fresh Air with Terry Gross

In 2008, he was hired to work on Fresh Air with Terry Gross and it changed his life. While working on the show, he became a husband and then a father. Shortly after his first daughter was born, he had the idea to start a kids’ podcast, Eleanor Amplified.
