I am an author, editor, and content strategist with more than a decade of experience creating content about health and medicine, science, engineering, and other fascinating subjects. Sometimes I write about the latest scientific discoveries. Sometimes I tell human stories of ingenuity and perseverance. I am driven by curiosity and a desire to understand, because I believe knowledge and empathy can help us all live more meaningful lives.
My work has appeared in publications such as Men’s Health (where I was an editor), Women’s Health, AARP The Magazine, EatingWell, Prevention, SELF, Health, Everyday Health, Shape, WebMD, and Medscape. I have more than a decade of experience finding the story behind the story and translating even the most complex subjects into content that audiences enjoy (and learn from). Often this involves interviewing experts – Ph.D.s, M.D.s, and other folks with serious credentials – to uncover answers to the questions we wonder about, such as why some people love to watch pimple-popping videos and what antioxidants actually are.
I have also served as a strategic communications leader for organizations committed to scientific discovery: a highly ranked public engineering college and a global oncology company. In both roles, I developed and implemented internal and external communications strategies to inform and inspire stakeholders and bolster brand awareness and value. Through authentic storytelling, and with a strategic eye toward driving business outcomes, I have created successful social media campaigns and grown social media followings. I have prepped executives for high-impact speaking engagements. I have managed external and internal storytelling. These roles require a nimble approach to internal and external communications, and I have done a little bit of everything.
