I love stories.
When I was a kid, I always got in trouble for reading past my bedtime. I tried hiding under the covers with a flashlight, but my breath made it unbearably hot. Eventually, I taped together a dozen plastic straws, making myself a reading snorkel. I was…resourceful.
Ever since, I’ve been collecting stories. At the University of Michigan, I studied musical theatre (because what’s better than a story set to music?), and Ancient Civilizations/Biblical Studies (because people have been telling stories for a LONG time).
I’ve found stories in the most compelling places—from Nicaraguan prisons, to public schools in the Bronx. Until recently, I made my living teaching kids to sing. (Which involves an unbelievable amount of listening to stories.)
Now, I live in Manhattan with my perfectly neurotic husband and our devilishly handsome dog, Nelson, writing down some of the stories I’ve been collecting. In the meantime, I'm writing copy for clients with a wide range of demographics, categories, and goals.
That’s my story.
