Professional Experience
I am an experienced writer and editor for national magazines. I specialize in women's and kids' health, but I've covered topics as varied as HIV/AIDS, alternative medicine, toddler discipline, dance, beauty, and travel.
My articles have appeared in magazines such as Ms., Fitness, Ladies' Home Journal, Cosmopolitan, POZ, OK!, Parents, and Parenting. I also have experience writing and editing for the Web, and I blogged throughout my pregnancy on Parenting.com (projectpregnancy.parenting.com)
I've done radio and TV spots for Parents magazine, OK! Magazine, and Parenting magazine.
