Claim your profileI've spent the last decade covering travel, food, and wellness as a freelance writer and editor. After visiting more than 50 countries and living in Belgium, Spain, and six different U.S. cities, I've developed a clear sense of what makes an experience stand out: quality, substance over style, and a genuine sense of place.When I started, I had no media connections—just a naive confidence that I now chalk up to the folly of youth. I pitched my way from a small local publication to bylines in The New York Times, National Geographic, Outside, Food & Wine, Condé Nast Traveler, and 30+ other outlets. Along the way, I've built a reputation for writing service-focused stories that empower readers to stop dreaming and start doing, whether that means trying a fitness trend, sampling a new cheese, or finally booking that trip to a dream destination.In addition to editorial work, I've written sponsored content and marketing copy for more than 20 brands, sometimes through media outlets and sometimes by working directly with the brand or an agency. Past and current clients include REI, Marriott, AAA, 1800Flowers, T. Rowe Price, Silversea, Cunard, Emerald Cruises, Impossible Foods, Tasty Bite, Viome, and more. My services include writing articles, web copy, social media content, email newsletters, and travel itineraries.What sets me apart is my experience as a former managing editor for top lifestyle brands. I've led large-scale content projects and know what it takes to keep them on track, from building editorial calendars and detailed briefs to coordinating with clients and freelance teams. I still occasionally step in when teams need coverage during transitions, parental leaves, or busy seasons.My favorite projects, no matter the client, encourage people to step outside their everyday routine and experience something new. I believe life's too short to sit on the sidelines, and the right content can be the nudge someone needs to make the most of it.I'm always open to collaborations and projects. If you're interested in working together, I'd love to hear from you. Feel free to send me a message or email!
