About me

Hello! I'm an independent food and travel writer based in the San Francisco Bay Area. I've been in the non-profit industry for 25 years, working with such wonderful groups as Amazon Watch, The Watershed Project, The American Himalayan Foundation, and Greenpeace International. After having written mountains of funding proposals and reports and other fundraising collateral, I've turned my sights over to this creative endeavor, as a way to enhance my love of travel. I'm excited to connect with you!
