Hi! Nice to meet you.

I’m a freelance writer and editor based in Toronto. From 2017 to 2020, I worked as a staff writer at NOW Magazine, Toronto’s alt-weekly. I’ve written for Canadian and international publications including The Globe and Mail, FASHION, Toronto Life, enRoute, Toronto Star, National Post, Chatelaine, Hazlitt, Maisonneuve, Narratively and the AV Club.

I like writing long features where I can dig deep into topics I’m passionate about, including affordable housing, the environment, arts and culture, health and urban issues. I also like writing profiles on everyone from musicians and donut slingers, to figure skaters and cannabis entrepreneurs. I’ve worked as an associate editor and contributing editor at House & Home magazine and as a fact checker at FLARE magazine.

I also have experience copyediting and proofreading, as well as writing sponsored content, press releases and website copy.

Send me an email if you’d like to work together!

Here’s some of my work.
