About me

Hi there. As the online health editor for Oprah.com, I cover health, fitness, wellness and other health-y, science-y news and facts. When I’m not researching how to get fit, lose weight, improve your memory or boost your energy, I also write freelance articles about women and stuff we find interesting: books, movies, television shows, comedians, rappers, performance artists, illustrators, environmental activists, travel, wedding planning, running, sweating, sweat lodges, Japanese memorial altars, face transplants and other fascinating topics.

My work has appeared in ELLE, BUST, New York Magazine, Salon.com, Whole Living, Women’s Health, Time Out New York, Nerve.com, Runner’s World, Women’s eNews, The Brooklyn Rail, Z!NK and other publications. Oh, and on Life Lift, the blog for Oprah.com and O mag.
