What I Do

Staff Writer And Engagement Editor

How I Got To The Weather Company

After formally beginning my writing career in 2017 as a freelance journalist, my interest in public health communication led me to the specialized field of written weather communication. As a freelance writer, I have published work under my byline for notable organizations including New Mexico Magazine, Out Magazine, GLAAD, Dell Technologies and others.

Based in New York City but hailing from New Mexico — a state I remember for its dramatic weather patterns — my personal experiences with dust storms, the snow-capped Rockies and rapid temperature changes at high altitudes have deeply influenced the way I view the power of the natural world. These experiences fuel my passion for exploring and explaining the dynamic world of weather.

What I Love About Working For The Weather Company

My unique perspective on weather, combined with a deep interest in scientific discoveries and public health, allows me to craft compelling stories that bridge the gap between complex scientific information and the layperson's understanding. I'm particularly drawn to the fascinating intersection of weather and wellness, reflecting my background in public health communications.
