Growing up in New York but moving to Northampton, Mass. for school, she embraced the rural life: owning chickens, contributing to the Greenfield Recorder’s “Going Green” and “Outdoor Adventure” issues and working as the external affairs outreach assistant at the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.
She returned to New York in 2012 following an offer at Women’s eNews. At WeNews she most notably wrote about low-wage female workers in retail and fast food right when the Fight for $15 was kicking off in Times Square. Her passion to cover social issues started there.
