WRITER

I started my career as a magazine writer and editor at ELLE, then rode the waves of changing media into digital storytelling, content strategy, and brand work.

These days, I write fiction. My completed novel, An Ideal Marriage, is a midlife love story and domestic comedy.

I’ve also written personal essays about relationships, women’s sexuality, and midlife reinvention for Hippocampus Magazine, Full Grown People, The Manifest-Station, and Crow’s Feet. 

You can find me at Beauty Hunter on Substack, where I write about experiencing awe, delight, and whatever you call beauty in daily life.

EVERYDAY ATHLETE

Swimmer, runner, walker, skier, former triathlete.

My relationship with movement is less discipline, more love—and very much about community.

I understand the need to get the ya-yas out and socialize while you play.

LATE BLOOMER

I married for the first time at 49.

In one fell swoop, I acquired a husband, grown stepchildren, grandkids, siblings-in-law—the works.

My grandmother name is T-Sizzle.

My stepdaughter lives in Australia, a place I now visit regularly. My mother is originally from Australia.

Life has a sense of humor.
