I have worked as a reporter since 2005 for daily newspapers in Georgia and New Hampshire, The Associated Press and MTV News. I also hold a masters degree in digital media journalism from Columbia University.

My work has been published by news outlets large and small, including the New Hampshire Union Leader, the Huffington Post and The New York Times.

When I'm not writing, I love to read and travel. I currently live in Washington with my husband, Brent, and our cat, Milly.
