Hi! My name is Ford and, for as long as I can remember, I’ve wanted to move people through language. I’ve worked in a number of fields including journalism, copywriting, technical writing, poetry, and creative nonfiction, each of which has taught me a vital lesson about the way we connect and communicate as people.

Right now, I’m stationed at Stanford. I just finished my BA in English here and am currently wrapping up my MA in Environmental Communication in Stanford’s Doerr School of Sustainability. I’m working on a mixture of personal and public-facing writing projects that I’m excited to launch throughout the rest of 2025. During my academic career, I’m most grateful that I’ve gotten to think critically about the importance of audience, the power of the individual voice, and the impacts that our words leave.
