Hi! I’m a culture and lifestyle writer.
I’m currently an MFA candidate in nonfiction writing at the University of Iowa. I was previously a staff writer at Glamour and the Forward. My work has been published in The Washington Post, Teen Vogue, Vox, Catapult, and more. I am also a freelance copywriter.
I split my time between Iowa City and San Francisco.
