I'm a ballet dancer turned interior designer turned lifestyle and travel writer based in New York. I've written for Barron's Penta, The Telegraph, Mansion Global, Travelmag, The Atlanta-Journal-Constitution, TravelAge West, and other publications. I'm the author or New York: 48 Hours, a travel guide published by National Geographic, and an active member of SATW (Society of America Travel Writers) and NATJA (North American Travel Journalists Association). Beyond exploring the world, I adore food, wine, and all things chocolate.
