I've been an editor with Healthline for 7 years and hold a Master of Fine Arts in Creative Writing from the University of Southern Maine. I've also studied adventure education and botanical perfumery.
I have extensive life experience with several chronic conditions, including anxiety, depression, migraine, and digestive health. I specialize in content that focuses on well-being, mental health, lifestyle, pet health, and natural remedies.
I've copyedited cookbooks, lifestyle books, and fiction. I've also reviewed books of all kinds for 20 years, am a former book subscription box curator, and wrote the limited series, Greatist Reads, on our sister site, Greatist. A Healthline Reads series is currently in development!
Outside of my work at Healthline, I'm a moss-obsessed nature walker, book collector, gardener, metalsmith, and fiction author. You can find me (and my cats) on bookstagram @avioletlife.
