I am a writer with over 20 years of experience. I started my career as a journalist with a BA in Journalism from Brooklyn College. My journalism, typically arts related, has been published by Slate, the New York Post, Time Out New York, Lambda Literary, GO and Self, to name just a couple. In the past few years, I switched more to a health focus, blogging for Nurx and Uqora, and ghostwriting for a nutritionist and prominent pelvic floor physical therapist. My work is well-researched, captivating, and easy for everyday folks to read. The following clips will give you an idea of my writing style.
