Experience Counts

I have spent the last 15 years writing and reporting for magazines, newspapers and the Web. From breaking news to tug-at-the-heart features, I know how to craft a story readers can't put down.

I write frequently on health, parenting, shelter and lifestyle topics. Quick turnarounds are one of my specialties. I pride myself on writing empowering health stories, service pieces that pack lots of info into small spaces and research- and reporting-intensive issue articles.

As an editor, I have fine-tuned everything from resumes to business Web sites to the 600-page redesigned Children's Aid Society Web site.

My byline can be found on AARP Bulletin, American Baby, Body+Soul, Pregnancy, Kiwi, iVillage.com, BobVila.com and EverydayHealth.com. My bachelor's degree in journalism comes from Boston University.

This I Believe...

Solid reporting creates the framework for good writing.

My other guiding principles include:

- Deadlines are sacred.

- Editing is best when it's collaborative.

- The reader must be respected.

- All reporting must be fair, accurate and balanced. 

What I Can do for You:

I am ready to take on your next editorial project, be it breaking news, a Web slideshow that requires many facts in a small space or an in-depth, multi-sourced investigative feature.

I also edit copy of all kinds, from articles to newsletters to press releases, and am available for corporate assignments.
