I’m an Emmy award-winning journalist with over fifteen years of professional experience. I was a broadcast news producer for seven years, producing consumer and investigative news.
As a writer and editor for magazines, newspapers and websites, I’ve covered news and features, including food, health and weddings.

I’ve written hundreds of wedding planning articles for bridal magazines and websites across the country. Even though I’m married, I still love researching, writing and editing articles about weddings. It doesn’t get old.
Some of my favorite articles are “Real Wedding” profiles of couples’ big days. I’ve written about weddings with hundreds of guests and seemingly endless budgets and I’ve covered intimate weddings with limited budgets.
The money really doesn’t matter because it’s the emotion that counts. A couple in love will have a wonderful wedding whether they’re eating chicken or prime rib; drinking wine instead of champagne; or eating sheet cake instead of gourmet cake.
Stay connected with me and my writing through my website, on Facebook and Twitter.
Thanks to my family, especially my husband Frank and my sons, as well as my mother, father, brother and sister. Additional thanks to my in-laws, extended family and friends.
