While my day-to-day is spent as the founder and editor-in-chief of Modern South, a new media brand shining a fresh spotlight on Southern food, travel, and lifestyle, I still find much joy in writing about people and places I’m passionate about for other audiences.
My freelance writing portfolio spans beats, topics, and audiences, including travel guides, restaurant roundups, coverage of trending beauty and wellness topics, and business profiles. My specialties lie in spotlighting the South as a tourism destination and in creating SEO-driven content that benefits both readers and publications.
Words in: National Geographic, The Telegraph, AFAR, U.S. News Travel, Cosmopolitan, Redbook, Matador Network, Women’s Health, Woman’s Day, OpenTable, Eater, Bourbon+, and many more.
