Howdy. Thanks for visiting.

A little about me: I grew up in slightly upstate New York, went to college in Philadelphia and Scotland, worked in Colorado for seven years, and now live in Boston, Massachusetts, where I’m the executive editor of Boston Magazine. I spend most of my time covering politics, urbanism, crime, and the environment. I’m also a contributing writer at Mountain magazine, which focuses on recreation and lifestyle coverage in states blessed with altitude. Previously, I was the digital/senior editor of 5280, Denver’s city magazine.

Outside of work, you’ll find me biking, skiing, urban farming (cough, gardening), brewing beer, making wine, and mixing old-school whiskey cocktails. You can reach me at patrickcdoyle AT gmail DOT com. You can follow me Twitter here: @patrickcdoyle.
