about
I'm a New York-based longform editor with nearly 20 years' experience in print and digital storytelling, serving tens of millions of readers. I have worked on a broad variety of topics including illegal child labor, the heroin epidemic, sexual violence against women, military veterans and much more. I value writers with nuance and flair, creative art and photo packaging, and stories with a sense of humor. I have served as an ASME judge and been a featured speaker at several ASJA panels.

As a digital editor, I'm adept at evaluating a topic's SEO and social value and tailoring key words, metadata, heds and deks to optimize its performance.
For WomansDay.com and GoodHousekeeping.com, I write and edit highly engaged and over-performing pieces such as this essay and this recent feature story.
My work covers important social issues such as the opioid epidemic, LGBTQ issues, and workplace inequality.
