Public and Cultural Storytelling

Stories make readers feel something—happiness, nostalgia or passion—which builds trust and emotional bonds. Journalists combine intensive research, sharp storytelling skills, and a dedication to accuracy. For brands, compelling, well-told stories encourage visitors to explore, stay longer, and share the content, leading to higher engagement.

Consumer Travel, Destinations and Lifestyle

Consumer Travel,  Lifestyle and Human Interest 

My work in the airline and travel industry informs my writing about consumer travel and destinations. I'm a resident of New Zealand by application (I live in the U.S. now), and have collaborated as a journalist with both Tourism Australia and Tourism New Zealand. Lifestyle and human interest journalism help us live smarter, and learn from those who do (or don't!), combining educational value with entertainment. 

 

​I've written for Time, The Boston Globe, AFAR and the Los Angeles Times, among many. For the industry, I've contributed to TravelAge West, Travel Agent, Luxury Travel Adviser, Hotel News Now and more.​​​​​​
