When I was a toddler, I didn't leave the house without my large container of Magic Markers and ridiculously thick stack of colored card stock paper. Why? Because I was continuously writing stories, taking notes, and interviewing everyone I came into contact with. 

​

20 years later and not much has changed. Except I've moved from Magic Markers to Word (most of the time!) And, I have a degree now. 

​

I took that same tenacity and passion for storytelling into my career at Iowa State University. Two weeks into the journalism program I decided to found a campus publication. I didn't have any experience in magazine, much less in starting one, but I dove right in. Happy, Strong Healthy (HSH) is the culmination of that passion, a group of highly talented and motivated individuals, and countless sleepless nights.

​

With that experience in tow, I earned an apprenticeship with Diabetic Living Magazine, a Meredith brand. While at Meredith I sharpened my research skills, interviewed a lot of medical professionals, and improved my writing. 

​

This led me to pursue a career in writing, focusing on blog writing, brand voice, and digital marketing. Some topics I love to write about include health, fitness, travel, food, technology, and finance.

I hope you enjoy checking out my work and maybe learn a thing or two along the way!
