Other Work History
A Manhattan-born, London-raised journalist and editor, I have lived and worked in Sun Valley, Idaho since 2003. Last year I relocated to the beautiful city of Charleston, South Carolina where I am working as a freelance writer and editor.
I started my career in journalism with London's Daily Telegraph newspaper, working for 5 years on the Telegraph Magazine and the newspaper's daily features page. For the past decade I've been immersed in Idaho media as editor of Sun Valley Guide magazine, features writer for Idaho Mountain Express newspaper and blogger at Sun Valley Resort.
