Jungfraujoch, Switzerland

​I live north of San Francisco in Sonoma Wine Country, so weekends spent enjoying and exploring the Bay Area typically outnumber those at home. Though my favorite trips often require a passport, I always set aside time for a summer stint to recharge on the Jersey Shore, where I was raised. A majority of my career I worked in television news for NBC in San Francisco, and rarely had the opportunity to report feature stories. Now, as a freelancer, I enjoy writing about anything fun; travel adventure, and food are all the types of things that make most folks smile. I also serve as a travel correspondent for KRON4 television in San Francisco, so along with photography, I shoot a great amount of video when on the go.
 
Favorite trips, and recent assignments include shooting rapids in Finland, swimming with manatees in Florida, and searching for polar bears in Canada. That said, I don’t think I’ve ever been on trip where I haven’t found something that’s made me happy I’ve made the journey. Writing credits include Hemispheres, Alaska Beyond Magazine, Shondaland, Garden & Gun, AARP, Diablo Magazine, Napa Sonoma Magazine, TravelAge West, The Telegraph.com, and more.
 
I split my days between traveling, pitching editors, writing about travel, trying to keep up with the ever-changing tech of the publishing world, and exploring with my incredibly supportive family.
 
A member of the Society of American Travel Writers, (SATW) I’m lucky enough to know and work with some amazing people.
