About

Hi! I'm Liz.

I am a writer, reporter and editor living in Brooklyn, New York with my husband, two daughters, two inscrutable cats and one exceedingly scruffy rescue dog.

As a writer, I have published stories on health, beauty, fitness, nutrition, travel, or whatever is on my mind, whether it's how I feel about destination spas, a screed against our culture of unrealistic beauty, or a celebration of DGAF winter dressing. I have written about sleep dentistry, cult fitness trainers, and facelifts. I've reviewed baby products, sports bras, and eye creams. I've reported on eye surgery, labia surgery, and bariatric surgery. I've tracked 24-hours in the life of Carrie Underwood, asked Nick Lachey about his baby's bedtime routine, and confessed my undying love for watching QVC.

I have worked as an editor for a variety of magazines: More magazine, Health magazine, Good Housekeeping, Parents magazine, Real Simple magazine, Every Day with Rachael Ray magazine, Self magazine and Scholastic Parent & Child magazine.

As an editor, I've packaged and edited articles on everything from heart disease to back-to-school routines; from etiquette to eating disorders; from hair makeovers to health blunders.

Just to prove I am nothing if not a jack of all trades (and master of some!) I've also proven my chops in worlds outside of magazines, in the world of CONTENT/BRAND MARKETING:

I've done copywriting for Birchbox and Bumble and bumble and Ollie Pets; I’ve created sparkling text for Sephora holiday catalogs and Hewlett Packard (via the T Brand Studio, from the New York Times), Olay (via the Hearst Content Studio).

I’ve written marketing emails for Roller Rabbit, as well as updated all of their site copy and their style guide. I've also written for more clients such as Johnson & Johnson, the National Resources Defense Council, the University of California at San Francisco, and Canyon Ranch. I've edited proposals, annual reports, and other collateral for Arabella Advisors, a philanthropy consultancy.

My work has appeared in:
Good Housekeeping Health Allure
Parents Redbook Cosmopolitan
Harper's Bazaar Details Family Fun
Self Woman's Day InStyle
Shape Dr. Oz The Cut
New York Mag New York Observer Real Simple
More Family Circle Prevention
American Baby WebMD Travel + Leisure
Town&Country.com Salon.com Women's Health
Weight Watchers
Yoga Journal.

Oh, and I have a BA in Comparative Literature from Brown University, which mostly just means that I ultimately couldn't decide between being a French major or an English major. That, and the fact that I was able to live in Paris for close to a year-and-a-half. Oui! Oui!

I like dried fruit, making to-do lists, watching plastic surgery on Instagram, doing impossible crossword puzzles, and parallel parking.

I'd love to hear from you! Yes, YOU!
