About Me

I currently work at Zappos.com as a content writer for the Web site. I am responsible for the Action Sports and Fashion Apparel portfolios which consist of 45 well-known brands including Hurley, Roxy, Element, BCBGMAXAZRIA, Shades of Grey, DKNY Jeans and Nike 6.0 Prior to accepting my position with Zappos.com, I was a staff writer for Exhibit City News, a Las Vegas publication. There, I covered the convention circuit--including prominent shows like JCK and FMI in Las Vegas and the Offshore Technology Convention in Houston. Originally from University Place, Washington, I hold a BA from the University of Nevada, Las Vegas (UNLV). While completing my undergraduate degree, I wrote for The Rebel Yell, the UNLV newspaper, and later, the Beehive Standard Weekly, a faith based publication. Ambitious and never without a "plan B," during that time I simultaneously worked for five years—successfully—in the financial sector. Though I’m now focused on building my career in the e-commerce world—and loving every minute of it, I maintain a strong interest in television and the arts. I spent the 2007-2008 television season in Los Angeles where I worked in post-production for, Bunim Murray Productions (BMP), a company often thought of as the pioneer for reality television. I was selected out of thousands of applicants for a prestigious internship with the company and was later hired on and worked on MTV’s ‘The Real World’ seasons 19 and 20; I also worked on America's Psychic Challenge, another BMP production.
