About

As an editor and freelance writer, I explore thought-provoking news topics in a way that relates to women and journalists. From the less sugary aspect of pop culture, to the more pertinent topics of women’s rights, my goal is to start a discussion about gender, class and other cultural topics important to the modern feminist.

After traveling to Ghana during graduate school at New York University and later to India, women’s roles abroad and at home are of particular interest to me. And, being a twenty-something, fashion, food and pop culture are always mixed into the dialogue.

Below you’ll find links to posts that represent the tone of this blog, please feel free to comment and share your thoughts.

I look forward to dynamic conversations about all things noteworthy — the latest trends, politics, education, the environment, whatever…
