I'm a writer, editor, adventurer, creator of delightful content, and mom.

I write about meaningful travel, adventure, science, sustainability, motherhood, feminism, love, and the busy intersections of these close-to-my-heart topics.

My editorial writing has been published in The New York Times and several anthologies and magazines, including Afar, Islands, Stanford, National Geographic Traveler, Business Insider, Garden Design, Sport Diver, and on nationalgeographic.com. I’ve also worked as an editor for Afar, Islands, Sport Diver, Weekend Sherpa, and Via. 

Right now I'm honored to be writing and editing multiple projects for Save the Redwoods League, a highly rated nonprofit that has helped create or expand 66 redwood parks and reserves. Before that, I worked for several years as a senior copywriter and content creator for Cocofloss, a women-owned small business that creates innovative oral-care products featured in The New York Times Wirecutter and more. I’ve also developed social-media strategies for Afar and the travel company Wilderness Travel and have written ad copy for international tour companies and resorts.

As a copywriter and content creator, I enjoy helping exceptional nonprofits and forward-thinking brands to clarify, enliven, and strengthen their copy, elevate their storytelling, and confidently communicate their sincere steps toward creating positive change. I believe in writing that's rebelliously human, heartfelt, and sharp. With a bit of spunk and creativity, even seemingly mundane, research-driven topics can hook readers.

I hold a B.A. in English with distinction from Stanford University and a certificate in editing from U.C. Berkeley Extension.
My passion for exploring and learning has led me to travel in about 70 countries. Now I live with my husband and daughter in the small town of Louisville, Colorado, near Boulder.
