Work

I specialize in lifestyle features that include travel and profiles. I’ve written about young hotel heiresses and a Venetian concierge. I’ve shared the latest in bathroom design trends and wedding trends, as well as my experiences with cooking lessons and golf lessons. I especially love to write about emerging neighborhoods, new museums, and overlooked gems in the city I’ve lived in or near since college: Washington, DC.
