Expertise
I contribute to all of PureWow’s lifestyle content, but my specialty lies in sex and relationships and interior design. With a keen eye for emerging trends, my main priority is to ensure readers receive factual, reliable information. I regularly collaborate with psychologists and wellness experts—and as the on-camera relationship editor in Cupid's Corner, I bring data-backed info to PureWow’s social audience.
In the interior design space, I've had the privilege of working with several prominent designers—including Carlyle Designs and Karen B. Wolf—who have appeared in Architectural Digest and House Beautiful, respectively. I also produced and edited a podcast series, Design Pop, which highlights emerging trends in the interior design space.
Experience
I have a somewhat unorthodox media background, making me a jack of all trades. My first internship was at The Wellery in Saks Fifth Avenue, which established my foundation in the health and wellness space. From there, I interned for Carlyle Designs, gaining hands-on experience with high-profile interior projects. My journey continued with an internship at William Morris Endeavor, where I polished my writing skills by evaluating scripts and submitting lengthy summaries. After college, I became the media manager at Karen B. Wolf Interiors, where I published feature stories and produced a podcast. Eventually, I brought my “big three”—writing, wellness and interiors—to PureWow as an associate lifestyle editor.
Education
In 2020, I graduated from Indiana University with a dual degree in media communications and media management, law and policy. In my journalism courses, I focused on opinion essay writing and non-fiction storytelling. My media law studies involved essential topics, such as the ethical responsibility to the reader. And with a minor in gender studies, I learned how romantic relationships have evolved—and how they continue to evolve in today's cultural zeitgeist.
