She has worked with a broad range of authors, celebrities and entrepreneurs — including Deepak Chopra and Daymond John. She founded The Wonder Report in 2018, and her words can be read in a variety of print and digital media sources including Cosmopolitan, Marie Claire, Woman’s Day, POPSUGAR, and OprahMag.com—many of which have been syndicated by Apple News, MSN, The Huffington Post, and Yahoo! With a deep intrigue for human beings and fiery passion for smacking her readers in the face with the truth, she writes and reports boldly and introspectively about topics that challenge the status quo — in the realms of love and relationships, spirituality, trauma, women’s issues, wellness and the nuances of a successful and fulfilling life. She is also deep in the process of co-authoring her first book, which is a conscious and gutsy exploration of the illusions of fame, power, success, and the inescapability of humanness—all told through narratives involving some of the people the world most idolizes.
