Professional Experience

All writing is storytelling. Whether exploring hard cider as a food editor, crafting a farmers’ market press release or blogging, I engage, inform and entertain. I’ve freelanced for The Philadelphia Inquirer and Grid. Besides food, I’ve covered lifestyle, education, home/garden and travel.
