How I got here.
I grew up in northwest Washington, which inspired a natural curiosity about the world around me — plants, animals and humans. I’ve loved reading and writing for as long as I can remember, and decided to be a journalist as a high school freshman. I also wanted to forge my path in a new place, so I packed my bags for Upstate New York and then Chicago.
Where I’m at.
I live with my husband and very loud cats in Chicago’s Hermosa neighborhood, where I dabble in competitive pinball, woodworking, gardening, unhealthy cooking and also being very loud. I pride myself on being a voracious reader, a dubious driver and a fiercely loyal friend.
I love creating and serving as the voice of a brand because it’s a very specific version of storytelling—bringing a company to life and shaping its personality through the power of words.
Where I’m going.
Who’s to say?
