Multifaceted Wordsmith, Expat, Editor, and Spiritually Inquisitive
Welcome to my website, where I share a penchant for writing, travel, culture, and a growing interest in spirituality and energy healing. My journey brings me to Madrid, where I work as an editor and weaver of words, bringing diverse experiences and enterprises to life in the digital world through captivating content.
My extensive background in travel writing dates back eight years and includes over 600 articles dedicated to Portugal. In 2015, I moved from charming New England to the enchanting cobblestone streets of the historic Iberian Peninsula. My experiences helped shape a deep appreciation for culture and hospitality. I also developed marketing knowledge and social media management skills. The art of storytelling, however, always existed dormant inside of me.
I love channeling the magic of a destination. Bringing readers with me by describing the aromas, flavors, and individuality is gratifying. You can read an example of a food article for Viator here.
While travel writing is integral to my journey, I'm no stranger to B2B SaaS content. I graduated with an MS in Science and can easily translate complex concepts into digestible content. Research is a key part of my business, as is staying up-to-date with contemporary technology. A knack for storytelling, a touch of creativity, and detailed editing skills help me capture the attention of industry professionals.
It hasn't been all sunshine and roses. My business and personal life took a hit during the COVID pandemic. Among the downfalls, my father lost a terrible four-year battle with strokes and cancer. Pandemic restrictions blocked my chance for a proper goodbye. Overcome by grief and anger, I turned to spirituality — only I wasn't sure what I believed. This point in time sparked a passion for exploring connections between mind, body, and soul. Every day, I dive more profoundly into meditation, mindfulness, and energy works. I want to incorporate this area into my business and use my writing skills to illuminate the transformative power of energy healing and esoteric practices.
Outside my writing world, my life is loving and fulfilling, yet sometimes tricky. I live with chronic conditions like PCOS, fatigue, and eczema (the latter two likely influenced by the former). Shining a light on the many sides of PCOS is another interest, especially as it's under-represented in the media. Despite all this, I am privileged to experience the joys and challenges of motherhood and cherish each moment with my toddler as I work as a freelancer. I also love my amazingly supportive partner, nature, the ocean, and crafting.
Join me on my journey. I will dig deep to grow professionally and personally, sharing my experiences along the way.
