WELCOME

I am a creative nonfiction writer based in the California Bay Area. My writing has a unique blend of creativity and practicality resulting from my love for both poetry and technical, research-oriented writing. Most importantly, my passion for writing comes from the belief that it is a valuable tool to deliver important news to you in an enjoyable way. My articles, and blog, focus primarily on cutting-edge health issues. Other articles, still in the spectrum of wellness, cover beauty and fashion.

In addition to writing for magazines, I am also a commercial copywriter. I can work with you to develop effective content for your communications needs — from website content to your brochures. If you already have material, but need a professional opinion to look over your draft, I will be happy to provide my expertise as an editor.
