Writing
I started working in 2012 as a freelance writer, publishing blog posts at night and on weekends for a site called The Gloss, where I was later hired as fashion & beauty editor.
In the 13 years since then, I’ve had the privilege of covering beauty, wellness gender, and health for outlets I admire, including The Cut, Business Insider, Latina, Esquire, Well+Good, Bustle, Good Housekeeping, and Allure Magazine, where I served as site director from 2017 to 2024. Here are some of my favorite things I’ve written.
