Professional Experience

Magazines, books, websites, apps—I've done it all. I'm a wildly adaptable writer who knows what editors want, and I deliver it. I've been developing and creating content for national publications for over a decade, both on staff and as a freelancer. Now I've made the leap to 100 percent freelance, and I'm up for new assignments both big and small. Call me to write a product roundup, to simplify health information, to write social media posts, or to edit a package of content. I do content strategy too. My expertise covers the gamut of health and lifestyle—parenting, pregnancy, weddings, fashion, beauty, fitness, relationships, sex, travel, products and decor. Also, a coauthor of three books, and driver of several book projects for The Bump, I'm open to new book projects and ideas.
