Biography
Based in Asheville, NC, I have 15+ years of experience as a published writer and editor for WNC magazine, a Folio award-winning lifestyle publication covering Western North Carolina. I’ve curated and overseen the production of more than 100 issues and thousands of articles about this gorgeous area of Southern Appalachia, from its vibrant farm-to-table scene to Appalachian history to outdoor adventures. As a writer, I’ve written about everything from arts, crafts, and culture, travel and outdoors to food, farming, architecture, style, people, and more. I've also worked in communications, marketing, and PR and have served as a freelance contractor for numerous businesses and nonprofits over the years. I've handled content creation, such as SEO-driven website copy, newsletter and blog creation, social media messaging, as well as developing snappy slogans and branded taglines. I've handled numerous successful publicity campaigns, and consult businesses (especially in the F&B industry) on marketing and communications strategies.
