Several of her pieces have attracted natural, high-quality links and large numbers of social shares."

I love stories.
Few things are more satisfying to me than telling a story as a way to impact the people and circumstances around me. Sometimes that takes the form of a feature on the challenges of family trips when you have a child with disabilities. Sometimes it's a profile on an innovative teacher who's changing kids' lives. Occasionally it might be an in-depth review of outdoor gear for plus-size women, or an essay on recognizing and honoring a change in ourselves that sets us off in a direction we didn't expect. Even product stories, launch stories, and stories about how technology is shaping our lives. I'd love to hear yours, and help you tell it to others.
