I write features, explainers, and commerce pieces for health and lifestyle publications. My how-to guides are designed to help people give their dogs the best life possible. I turn to my dogs, Dally, Rusty, and Frankie for inspiration.
My work has been featured in American Kennel Club, Well+Good, Business Insider, PS, Apartment Therapy, HuffPost, The Kitchn, SELF, Katie Couric Media, Outside Magazine, Yoga Journal, Byrdie, and more.
I became a therapist before specializing in public health for my Ph.D. I create mental health resources and content through my platform, Smart Girl Therapy, to inspire wellness and personal growth.
As a storyteller and lifelong fan of The Golden Girls, I aspire to be "Picture it, Sicily, 1920-something,” but really I'm more "Back in St. Olaf."
