An award-winning journalist, I am as much a storyteller as I am a reporter and writer. In-depth knowledge of real estate, luxury, design, architecture, green living, sustainability, wellness and technology enables me to explain complicated topics in ways that resonate with consumers. I have been telling stories about real estate, homes, architecture and industry trends for two decades in publications including Unique Homes Magazine, New Home Source, the Washington Post, the Associated Press, the New York Times and dozens of others. My professional associations include the National Association of Real Estate Editors, where I am a former board member. I am also a member of SABEW, the Society of Business Editors and Writers. I am often called on to judge housing competitions including the Aurora Awards and am also a product judge for the National Association of Home Builder's annual trade event.
