Welcome to my portfolio! I'm a New England–based freelance writer and reporter sharing the stories of people and places that shape our communities.

Writing is the art of giving voice to the human experience, turning complex emotions and shared truths into lasting words.

About Me

I'm a freelance writer based in New England, drawn to the stories, experiences, and people who shape our communities.

My own story began in Russia, where I was born before being adopted at the age of 13 and moving to the American Midwest with my family. Later, I attended Missouri Southern State University, where I studied Psychology—a field that deepened my fascination with human behavior and the many different paths people take through life.

After college, I spent eight years living in Miami before eventually finding my way to the Berkshires, where I now happily call home. As a freelance writer and reporter, I enjoy interviewing local residents, business owners, artists, entrepreneurs, and community leaders. One of the things I love most about journalism is the opportunity to connect with people from all walks of life and learn about their experiences, passions, challenges, and accomplishments. Through my work, I strive to tell stories that inform, connect, and celebrate the individuals who make our communities unique.

Outside of writing, I enjoy hiking, gardening, cooking and exploring the natural beauty and cultural life of New England. I also work for a financial advisory firm in Great Barrington, MA.
