I am currently the resident wordsmith at Vita Coco, the world's largest and most popular coconut water brand. Before this role, I was heading up content at another great brand called Levity, Ruggable's new furniture company. Prior to Levity, I was first the Social Media Editor and Digital Editorial Assistant at Runner's World and Bicycling magazines and then the Public Relations Manager at Hawke Media, one of the fastest-growing marketing consultancies in the U.S. I still freelance write for Runner's World, Bicycling, VICE, Mic, Zumper, and Fitt. I've had a variety of professional experiences. I've been behind a desk, at a crime scene, in the newsroom, in the studio, in the warehouse, out on a run, out in the streets, in the conference room, in a client's restaurant, and everywhere in between.My professional interests include writing, reporting, editing, researching, public and community relations, advocacy and activism, external and internal brand communications, multimedia projects, and digital content and social strategy. I believe that every person and brand has a story to tell, and I’m passionate about telling these stories. I love to tell my own story, too. I have a significant following on Twitter and Instagram. I run my own website and an additional site for my graduate school capstone project, which I am currently working on turning into a book and I will tell you all about if you ask.In May 2017, I graduated with my Master's degree in Communications, Digital Media & Storytelling from Loyola University Chicago. I also received my Bachelor's degree in English from Loyola in May of 2015.I was an honor roll student every semester, a year-round Division I athlete on the cross country and track teams, and a top entertainment and lifestyle reporter at Loyola's nationally-awarded school newspaper throughout my undergraduate and graduate careers. In my spare time, I'm working on qualifying for the 2028 U.S. Olympic Marathon Trials. En route to this goal, this past year, I broke the world record for the youngest, fastest woman to run all six World Marathon Majors. It doesn’t get any better than combining my love of running with my love of travel. You can also find me exploring all the New York City restaurants and thrift stores, climbing mountains in Alaska with my friends, and at Coachella. I love getting in touch!
