Experience

As a solo homeowner, I'm always looking for smart, functional ways to upgrade my space. I've written countless interior design and home improvement articles for Bustle, Lonny, and Better Homes & Gardens. I'm also a gamer, dog owner, and avid baker, so I love raving about the tech (Inverse), pet items (Mic and Elite Daily), and kitchen essentials (Food & Wine) that improve my life on a daily basis.

Favorite Purchase

I've only had it for a few months, but I'm already obsessed with the Our Place Always Pan. I use it almost every morning and night, and have a sneaking suspicion I'll end up buying every single available add-on accessory.

Education

After transferring from Ursinus College, I earned a BA in English and a minor in creative writing from SUNY New Paltz. I'm also a certified writing tutor and placed in UC's Writing Award.
