I was born in Chicago, raised in the Midwest, and studied creative writing and journalism at the University of Iowa. I was quickly immersed in Southern culture when I moved to Birmingham, Alabama, and became a writer and editor for Southern Accents Magazine at Time Warner. The lavish interiors and grand architecture of the region inspired me to study interior design while working as an editor. Today I am a lifestyle journalist, editor, brand strategist, and communications specialist with more than 25 years of experience managing and producing content for magazines, books, digital, television, and sales/marketing/PR assets. My diverse career history illustrates a proven track record of my ability to work collaboratively with editors and art directors, write creatively on a multitude of topics, implement projects, manage relationships, write with a mission, connect with a multitude of consumers, and effectively translate research outcomes into compelling content that drives action. I am an adaptable communicator and brand ambassador with specialties that include creative storytelling, content marketing, and project management.
