I’m a writer, editor, content strategist, educator, and community builder living between Brooklyn, New York and California’s Mojave Desert. Through writing, speaking, and leading workshops I create space for people to reflect on their own experiences and inspire them to realize an empowered vision for their lives and ideas.

I write nonfiction essays and stories that fuse my lived experience with critical thought and feminist cultural analysis. My third book, Riot Woman, a collection of feminist essays, was published in the fall of 2021 by Microcosm Publishing. I wrote my first two books, Quit Your Day Job and Quit Your Day Job Workbook, to be practical field guides for starting a creative business because I believe that when people are able to actualize their creative goals our culture as a whole becomes more robust and sustainable.

I hold a Bachelor’s Degree in Cultural Studies from Eugene Lang College, and a Masters in Public Administration from Baruch College, and an MFA in creative nonfiction from CUNY Queens College.

I am an experienced B2B content marketer and currently serve as the Content Marketing Lead at Lively. I formerly served as Senior Manager for Content Strategy and Copywriting for Axiom Legal Solutions and previously was the Managing Editor for All Hands, a publication about life at work from Managed by Q.

I have over a fifteen years of experience working with creative, visionary companies to create impactful, high-quality content and build robust, authentic communities. Whether designing public programming thousands of visitors at the Brooklyn Museum, leading business planning workshops for artists and creatives across the United States with the New York Foundation for the Arts, or launching and growing a global ambassador program for 3D printing startup Shapeways, I bring a sense of passion, grit, critical analysis, and empathy to my work.  

I possess a strong sense of equity, a belief in the power of community, and feel that questioning the established ways of doing business is crucial to our personal and cultural health.
