I've got a BJ and an MA in Journalism from the University of Missouri — and I put it to work, every day.
I spent the first part of my career working on the digital side of traditional media outlets, including two stints at Conde Nast, the publisher of Vogue. I've written on many topics, ranging from the best booster seats for kids to the most luxurious yachts on the Caribbean. My years as a magazine editor prepared me to bring a consumer-focused point-of-view to my marketing and advertising work; you will often hear me asking “so what’s the headline?” A selection of articles includes:
