Joined Atlas Obscura in 2023

As the Deputy Publisher of Atlas Obscura, I help lead the top travel community platform in the world, where we are helping people have the most incredible, mind-blowing experiences in their own backyards and around the world. As a world traveler myself, I love to explore the hidden wonders of Denver and the great state of Colorado, where I grew up and now live with my husband, son, two cats and three chickens. When I'm not out exploring you can find me at home in my garden, on the patio knitting, playing with friends on one of Denver's community tennis courts.
