Interview

Have you ever used a typewriter?

I have not!

What tools and software do you use to do your job?

It changes every day! Currently I use Basecamp, the Microsoft Office suite, Pallyy, Qwoted, and Monday.

What's your favorite social network?

TikTok!

Who do you wish followed you?

Naomi Klein!

Did you work for your high school newspaper? If so, what did you do there?

Yes! I was an editor for the weekly video announcements and then became the Entertainment Editor as well.

What's the best pitch you ever got?

Hmm. An 81-year-old once pitched me a story on her cannabis cookies brand! Just goes to show that it's never too late to start something new.

When you're not at a computer, where are you most likely to be?

Running around the city!

Aside from your own, what's your favorite publication to read?

New York Magazine and n 1.

What's the most common misperception about your beat?

The beauty beat is sometimes seen as shallow, but makeup and hair require artistry, and I believe there is so much self-expression in beauty.
