What’s my story?
I’m a writer, editor, and content strategist based in Boston’s Jamaica Plain neighborhood. My work has been focused on storytelling since writing my first freelance story in print about the history of whoopie pies for the Boston Globe.
Over the years, I’ve authored two cookbooks; written and edited countless editorial stories and recipes as both a staff editor and freelancer; built audiences and created content to support a more sustainable food system; spearheaded and launched a network, event series, and podcast for women food entrepreneurs; developed programming for dozens of educational events, taught food writing and communications to hundreds of students, and written multi-channel copy for major brands.
Although I’m a company of one, I thrive in collaboration. I love working with people - in teams or one-on-one - to help shape narratives, build audiences, and reach goals.
Off the clock-ish
One time, I launched a cookie popup, where I baked and shipped fancy bespoke cookies all over the country for the holidays. That was fun. And short-lived - though some of the cookies are still in my repertoire.
That was over a decade ago. Since then, I’ve had two kids, done a bunch of work stuff (see above) deepened my commitment to anti-racism, developed a yoga practice, hosted lots of parties filled with wild children, and tried hard to go to bed early whenever possible. In 2019 I launched a newsletter, now called Make, Release, Repeat. You can sign up via the form, below - or go straight to the source.
Lately, when I’m home in the neighborhood, I’m probably walking with friends or haunting a little league game or skatepark with my kids. It’s highly likely I’m reading women authors and obsessing over invasive plant species while I procrastinate mowing the lawn.
