MEET me

I am a New York City-based lifestyle editor, writer and artist. By day I work at a women's lifestyle publication covering all verticals, including beauty, fashion, wellness, travel, weddings, relationships, family, food, and money. In the evenings (and weekends), I'm working on my first novel in a writers' workshop at 92NY—working title: "The God Note."


Hello.

Paris; Provence; Wes Anderson films; midnight strolls; ranunculus; sunrises; book shops; ice cream; Audrey Hepburn; floppy hats; skirts with pockets; Pride & Prejudice (I've read it 17 times); personality tests; and color theory. 

things i love:

As a writer and editor, I'm a Jane of all trades—and I like it that way. I'm curious and not afraid to ask too many questions. While I can tackle nearly any topic, I am most enamored with the opportunities to talk about sustainability and to bring a good feature story to light. Chalk the first one up to a recycling-obsessive parent and growing up in the SF Bay Area. As for the latter—I am fascinated by the intricacies of what it means to be human, and I love a deep dive into who people are, what they love, and what drives them. 

Writing for SEO. Affiliate content. Feature stories. From breaking down beauty trends to GenZ money habits, I write about (almost) anything and everything.
