Hamptons Chronicler

The Hamptons, rife with bad behavior and juicy goings on, is my favorite beat . I cover the bad behavior of the rich people there as a contributing writer for Vanity Fair, and for New York Magazine. My work has also appeared in the New York Post, Wall Street Journal, O, the Oprah Magazine, and multiple digital platforms.  

NYTimes Bestseller

A nutritionist told me I could “either eat or drink my dinner,” but not both. I suggested she write a book, but she said she didn’t know how. So I bought a book on how to write a non-fiction book proposal and a second career was accidentally born. I’ve since worked with doctors, actresses, a supermodel, a former U.S. Governor, news anchors, titans of industry, the first female coach of the NFL, and various health experts. Twenty-plus books later (including one New York Times bestseller), I collaborate, edit, and ghost write other people’s books and proposals.

News Producer

I spent two decades in TV and digital newsrooms—mostly as a field producer, but also as an editor, executive producer, and foreign bureau chief. I’ve interviewed famous people and regular people, ranging from Bruce Springsteen to Fidel Castro to Dennis Rodman to American Idol winners. I covered Olympics, natural disasters, elections, the Grammy Awards, and Wall Street. I’ve chased newsmakers around the globe clocking more than 650,000 miles and have visited six of seven continents.

Emmy Nominee

What started as a book proposal turned into a treatment that eventually turned into a reality TV series called Pushing It. I created, sold, and executive produced the show, which followed the life of an urban doula and a her pregnant or trying to get pregnant clients. It aired on NBC’s cable network, CoziTV and was nominated for a New York Emmy.
