Expert Storyteller
Marketing and brand content
I know how to reach customers—I’ve been a storyteller for over 20 years. I write clever copy for websites, rev up marketing messages, transform sales materials, create how-to articles, and build customer loyalty with email communications.
Consumer Publications
I specialize in health, diet, parenting, and lifestyle content—but I’ve covered almost every topic, from whether or not you should buy a small appliance warranty (you shouldn’t) to Padma Lakshmi’s favorite dinner (omelet with sautéed mushrooms and spinach). As a consumer-services writer, one of my strengths is to take complicated material and transform it into crisp, clear prose.
Books
I’m an award-winning ghostwriter specializing in prescriptive non-fiction. I’ve written, collaborated on, or ghostwritten five books that are currently on the shelves. I know what it’s like to put ego aside and compose in somebody else’s voice.
Social media management
I can help to engage – and increase – your customer base while spreading the word about your product, your company, or your services. I help businesses build and expand their social media platforms to generate buzz while ensuring their brand’s voice and message are incorporated across all digital channels. You can be confident that the content I create for you will reflect the professionalism and the unique personality of your brand at all times.
I tell — and sell — your story
Some people might say I’m a health geek. Actually, they’d probably just say I’m a geek. I humbly promote myself to Health Geek. 😉 As a consumer-services writer, one of my strengths is taking complicated material and making it accessible and enjoyable to the average reader, complete with a takeaway or two in each piece. I’ve interviewed doctors and other professionals, from the big names at some of the nation’s top institutions to small-town family physicians, with equal ease and good results.
Finally, and perhaps most importantly, I’m dependable, efficient, and, in over 20 years of freelancing, have never missed a deadline.

About Me
I’m an award-winning content writer who has published tens of thousands of words over 20-plus years as a professional writer. I’ve written for national magazines, websites, and marketing campaigns. I’ve ghostwritten books and blogs, and when inspiration strikes, I’ve drafted a note or two on a cocktail napkin.
I live on Long Island with my husband and three children. When I’m not in my office writing, I’m in my car shuffling my kids between karate, tuba lessons, and dance. On weekends you can usually find me running in the wee hours of the morning (I just ran my first half-marathon) and in the afternoons you’ll find me at a dance competition. No, not mine, my daughter’s. Though I did compete in the adult category with some fellow dance moms (and a dad) and we won first place! The fact that we were the only ones in the category doesn’t deter me from saying I’m a national dance champion.
I’m a member of the American Society of Journalists and Authors and the Association of Health Care Journalists
