Welcome to The Mod Traveller!

I’m a freelance lifestyle writer based in Larchmont, New York, where I live with my husband, three young kids, and an insatiable curiosity about what’s for dinner and where we’re headed next.

Before pursuing writing full-time, I worked in publishing, travel advising, and even practiced law (twice, in fact). I’m a Georgetown and GW Law grad who discovered that lifestyle writing lights me up far more than parsing statutes ever did.

I’ve explored 50+ countries, lived in France and Morocco, and earned my WSET Level 2 in Wines. My work has appeared in Forbes, Parents, Southern Living, Hotels Above Par, Washingtonian, and Bethesda Magazine, and I create audience-driven content for Travel + Leisure’s social channels.

When I’m not writing or wandering, you’ll probably find me testing out a new recipe, adventuring locally with my kids, or rocking out on a SoulCycle bike.

Want to collaborate, assign a story, or just say hi? I’d love to hear from you.
