I’m a writer, editor, and digital creative based in New York. Currently, I’m the Special Projects Director at SELF Magazine, where I oversee special projects and franchises from conception and development to execution.
I’ve held positions at Rolling Stone, Marie Claire, and FADER. I performed in a Moth StorySlam. I went to Colombia to write about group travel and I interviewed Selma Blair about beauty and illness. I spoke to Jane Fonda about vaping and being alone. I founded the Sleeping With column for SELF, where I’ve interviewed people like Jennifer Aniston, Drew Barrymore, and Billy Porter. I launched the brand’s Well-Read Book Club, alongside several other tentpoles. (You can see my portfolio here.)
My work has been twice-nominated for the National Magazine Awards and featured in the New York Times, Bookforum, and several times on the TODAY Show. I have appeared on podcasts and spoken at the New School’s writing program. I host Writing Club, a monthly silent working hour for anyone who wants to join via Zoom.
