About Me

I’ve had a love affair with words all of my life—I started talking way too early for my own good (just ask my mother) and have rarely been found without a book in my hand since making sense of those 26 letters.

My infatuation with language increased as I navigated my way through four years of high school Latin. Six years and two degrees later, I had an M.A. in art history, a burgeoning vocabulary and all sorts of things I was eager to see, experience and discuss.

Before starting my freelance business, I served as the Communications Manager for Newsletters and Conferences at Harvard Business School Publishing, and prior to that, I worked as Public Relations Director for two museums.

I’m an East Coast transplant from central Illinois and I love to travel.

I’ll grab any excuse to duck into an art museum. I’m a bit of a gym rat and I’m crazy about my pets. I hate to be late and I love nothing more than a good belly laugh. If you think we’d be a good fit, I’d be delighted to speak with you about your project.

Just shoot me an email or give me a call!
