I’m an award-winning author and the Managing Editor at Discover Magazine, a legacy publication that covers the stories that matter. I lead the editorial vision and oversee all content strategy across digital and print platforms, guiding a team of talented editors and journalists to deliver science journalism that informs and inspires millions of readers each month.
I’ve created B2B digital content for the University of Wisconsin-Madison Carbone Cancer Center, Remote Medical International, Milliman, and volunteered blog content for the Seattle Animal Shelter.
I recently produced and hosted the exclusive podcast episode with Discover Magazine, We’ve Only Explored 0.001% of the Deep Sea — What’s Lurking Below?
Olive is an adventurous young girl who wants to row a boat at sea — all on her own. As she seeks new land, determined to be independent, Olive also learns a valuable lesson about friendship.
An empowering book for 4- to 8-year-olds, Olive Takes to the Sea encourages young girls to believe in themselves and reinforces the importance of friendship.
After publishing “Olive Takes to the Sea” with Orange Hat Publishing, it won the International Firebird Book Award for children picture books ages 4-8.
