McKenzie has most recently been an independent journalist writing for National Geographic, The New York Times, Audubon Magazine, Grist, and other publications. She was previously the managing editor of the civic tech news site Civicist and interned at The Nation Magazine.
She has won awards or honorable mentions from the Society for Advanced Business Editing and Writing, the North American Agricultural Journalists Writing Awards, and The Newswomen’s Club of New York.
