Writer, Editor, Blogger, Dog Lover
I used to write about celebrities. Spending hours of my life waiting for them in hotel lobbies and suites turned me into a hotel reviewer and contributing editor for HotelChatter. 
For years, I didn’t have a dog so I got my fix as a dog walker, puppy raiser, training assistant, and dog-therapy volunteer. I also stalked dog runs. Now I have the best dog in the world, and have been an editor for the AKC magazines and the pets reporter for The New York Post.
When I’m not wearing my editor and journalist hats, I write fiction.
For more on where to find my travel writing, click here. To see lots of big, glossy photos of the hotels I’ve been hanging out in, you can visit my blog, Gone Pretty.
I also write about other topics and I still talk to the occasional celebrity. Even if it is all about their dogs.
