I feel most alive when I am surrounded by the unfamiliar.
My curiosity has sparked journeys trekking solo in Nepal, interviewing censored artists in Burma, and exploring ancient rock-cut monasteries in India.
Journalism and writing are in my soul. I began that work as a daily news editor and earned a master’s degree in journalism from the University of California, Berkeley, focused on international reporting and new media.
While my Northern California roots go back three generations, home is a global experience. My current home base is Milan, Italy.
I also support non-profit organizations and businesses through writing, editing, storytelling workshops, and content strategy.
