About Me:

I'm a writer and editor with over fifteen years of experience.

From 2020-2024, I oversaw the retail desk as the deputy editor at Business Insider. Before that role, I covered the restaurant industry for Nation's Restaurant News. I've also worked in editorial-ish roles at tech companies like Facebook, Apple, and Uncubed. In this role, I’ve managed and edited up to eight reporters and editors and led coverage on some of the biggest retail companies in the world, like Walmart, Starbucks, and Nike.

Previously, I covered the restaurant industry for Nation's Restaurant News and its sister publications, Restaurant Hospitality and Supermarket News.

I've also worked in editorial-ish roles at tech companies like Facebook, Apple, and Uncubed.

My writing has appeared in the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal, Eater, Entrepreneur Magazine, Businessweek Magazine, and other publications.

I received my master's degree from Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism, where I concentrated on digital journalism and interned at the social media desk of the New York Times. I received my BFA from the Art Institute of Boston at Lesley University, where I studied photography and art history and interned at Vanity Fair.
