She draws upon her background in writing, photography, video and audio to develop content for national and international audiences.

She’s currently the Communications Director for the Associated’s Jewish Women’s Giving Foundation and serves on the Arts and Culture committee of the JCC.

There is no subject too grand, odd or obscure to capture her interest. She is happiest when collaborating, learning about new ideas and places and making compelling stories that entertain, educate and connect people.
