I am a field editor for several Patch sites in Bergen County, N.J. I grew up in New Milford and started my journalism career after graduating from Marymount Manhattan College, working as a reporter at one of North Jersey Media Group's weekly newspapers. Over the last decade, I've worked at The Star Ledger/NJ.com, covering breaking news, courts, government and features in northwestern New Jersey and at The Journal News in Rockland County, N.Y., where I had an education beat.
