For over 17 years, I've worked as a brand leader, multimedia journalist, storyteller, creative strategist and communications professional. I have directed brand strategy, edited world-class publishing titles, launched products in new markets, led teams and spearheaded creative vision. I've been lucky to do this across global markets, including the U.S., India, the Middle East and Europe.

​

Currently based in London, I lead global brand, content and communications strategy for Travelzoo, a 25-year-old online media company that provides exclusive offers and travel and lifestyle experiences to its 30 million members around the world. I took on this role after a brief (yet fascinating) stint in Riyadh, working on content and publishing strategy for Diriyah, one of Saudi Arabia's multi-billion-dollar tourism gigaprojects.

​

The role was an adventurous leap from my previous job as founding Editor-In-Chief of Condé Nast Traveller Middle East, a post I held for 7 & 1/2 years in Dubai, guiding the brand through a digital transformation and, memorably, steering it through a global pandemic. When I launched Condé Nast Traveller in the GCC in 2013, it was the publishing house's first title in the region, and it quickly grew to be a leader in the lifestyle travel space.

​

Amidst the serious business of running an internationally recognised brand, I also had fun, journeying across the world and forging connections in all corners of the globe. This ability to find enjoyment in what I do was cemented during my nearly 6 years at GQ India in Mumbai, where I test-drove luxury cars, travelled in pursuit of the good life, and interviewed film stars, politicians, businessmen and sporting heroes. While at GQ, I also penned and promoted my first novel, Girl Plus One, commissioned and published by Random House.

Armed with a BA in Psychology from Brown University, Rhode Island and an MA in Journalism from New York University, I began my career with stints at various publications in New York City.
