During the day I’m a writer, editor, and content manager for higher education and philanthropy. A committed generalist, I have a humanities degree from Johns Hopkins University and a master of liberal arts degree from the University of Pennsylvania. I live in Wynnewood, PA, and Belmar, NJ, with my husband, two kids, two dogs, and two gardens.
