My Portfolio

My extensive experience in travel and lifestyle writing, as well as this Pacific Northwest blog, has allowed me to cultivate a unique voice in a world where most bloggers simply recite their experiences. I strive to go deeper with my writing and provide an engaging perspective on many different facets of our lives – whether that be travel & lifestyle, real estate, healthcare, alternative medicine, and more.
