Expertise

As an assistant commerce editor, I spend my days vetting and testing the best products out there, from the latest trends taking over TikTok to quality pieces that will last you a lifetime. I cover content across verticals including fashion, beauty, travel, home, pets, books and more, to find you the best of the best (bonus if they're eco-friendly and ethically produced!) I also contribute to PureWow's shoppable email content to deliver you our top finds straight to your inbox.

Experience

Prior to working at PureWow, I gained several years of experience in fashion through various freelance roles, retail and personal styling (you can find all the details on my LinkedIn). I also have additional experience in mental health and sustainable fashion through previous positions and volunteer roles.

Education

I received a bachelor's in psychology with a minor in sociology from the University of Pittsburgh, and after several years of assessing where my passions lie, I attended Parsons The New School to complete a master's degree in fashion studies and took electives and completed research focusing on journalism and sustainability.
