I’m a Pittsburgh-based travel content creator & writer who loves finding meaning in places people overlook. I focus on vegan food, Jewish travel, train journeys, hidden gems, and unique overnight stays. Through Instagram and TikTok reels, social stories, and written pieces, I show that travel doesn’t have to be perfect or well-known to be memorable. Even one good moment on a trip is more than you would have experienced if you stayed home. I received my Master of Fine Arts degree in Creative Nonfiction Writing with a concentration in Travel Writing from Chatham University, and a Bachelor of Arts degree in Judaic Studies and English from Binghamton University.
