Professional Experience
I'm a founding editor of O, THE OPRAH MAGAZINE, as well as a HARVARD-TRAINED FREELANCE WRITER who has covered oodles of topics...from why people fib so frequently (research shows that most folks utter three fictions every 10 minutes), to the unlikely rise of a fake hamster (think Zhu Zhu Pets).
Specialties: health, psychology, celebrity profiles, parenting, personal growth, relationships, women's issues, and travel.
I'm curious and spunky, and I've visited 32 countries on six continents. I've also co-authored a travel guidebook entitled Let's Go: Greece, which means I can tell you precisely where to find the world's best tzatziki (Hint: Get yourself over to Naxos).
P.S.: I'm a courageous interviewer, a poignant essayist, and a seasoned ghostwriter with a keen ear for voice. I'm also fast: I welcome ridiculously tight deadlines.
