Professional Experience

After a decade of writing and editing on staff at lifestyle magazines—as well as freelancing for local and national publications on the side—I'm living on the other side of the contract, so to speak. I believe there are great stories everywhere you look; you just have to dig enough to find them. Personality profiles and interviews are my bread and butter, but I'm a quick learner and take direction well on a variety of subjects. Chicago native and Gator for life.

Marine Modern
(Luxe Interiors + Design 6/1/2010)
As managing editor at Luxe Interiors + Design, I wrote this feature story on a home remodel in Seattle. Prior to this position, I had never written in the shelter category; this demonstrates how quickly I adapt to new subject areas.
The SUCCESS 25
(SUCCESS magazine 1/1/2015)
In less than a month, I interviewed 20+ high-profile sources for this 10-page feature. The result is brimming with pearls of wisdom from the minds of Deepak Chopra, Dr. Oz, Wayne Dyer, Suze Orman and more.
The Art of Conversation
(Boca Raton magazine 11/1/2009)
For this personality profile on internationally renowned artist Enrique Martinez Celaya, I visited his home for a lengthy one-on-one interview, visited his latest museum exhibit and spoke with film director Martin Brest.
