I write B2C stories for magazines and newspapers on disability and accessibility, drawing from my firsthand experience as a parent of a child with severe disabilities. I understand the challenges of navigating care, allowing me to connect deeply with my sources. This perspective enables me to craft clear, compelling stories that resonate with readers and advocate for change.

I also specialize in content marketing for financial institutions, leveraging my CPA background and experience as a former tax accountant to simplify complex financial data. I create clear, engaging content that resonates with consumers, making technical information easy to understand and actionable.

I have written for The New York Times, CNN, Wired, Huffpost, TD Bank, Synchrony Bank, AARP Travel, AAA, NJ Monthly, Jersey's Best Magazine, Rutgers Today, Success Magazine, Diversity Woman Magazine, Diversity in Action Magazine, Next Avenue, Fodor's, USA Today's Reviewed, Hippocampus Magazine, Business Insider, Good Housekeeping, Parents, Motherwell, Scary Mommy, Popsugar, Green America, The Mighty ​and other places.

From Readers:
​
“I have been SO enjoying your articles, the Good Housekeeping piece about staring, the “Glass Child” one almost made me cry. As someone with multiple disabilities myself I really relate to so much of what you’re talking about, and it’s incredibly refreshing to read a parents’ perspective that is healthy, disability-positive and inclusive of everyone involved. Kudos to you!!”

“ Your CNN article has a wonderful balance between your lived experience as a parent and what you might advise friends whose children are going through a lot. I have a neurotypical daughter who is now 22 and a neurodivergent son who is 25. I lost patience with people saying they can’t imagine ever doing it (life=lemons, you step up) or offering assistance and not following through. You got across a sense of needing the understanding, not empty platitudes, of others.”
