I’m a Brooklyn-based editor covering everything about lifestyle, basically art and fashion, but also travel, beauty, design and gastronomy. I travel all over the world to notice the effect that culture has on people’s lives, whether it’s through an art fair, a museum exhibition or a cutting-edge product, and then I bring my observations. I need to open people’s eyes to things they might not see any other way. I’ve reported on the global art that has infiltrated Silicon Valley, interviewed some of the most influential people in the world, and I’ve noticed incredible works of art. I write for publications that come with Daily Beast, Monocle, Marie Claire, Interview, Fashionista, The Manual, Business of Fashion, T, W, ARTnews, Al Jazeera America, Fast Company, The Economist and more.
