Thanks for visiting! I’m Jackie—a writer and editor based in the Great Western Catskills. My specialty is lifestyle content, and my passion is telling stories that inspire creativity, curiosity, and self-discovery. 

Since packing it all up, moving to the country, and going freelance, I’ve had the pleasure of developing and producing a mix of voice-y features, essays, and commerce content for major media outlets and brands including Country Living, BuzzFeed, Business Insider, Etsy, and more. To each new project, I bring more than a decade of expertise covering a wide range of verticals, including home and living, fashion, art, beauty, crafts, collectibles, weddings, vintage and more. My portfolio includes style tutorials, trend deep dives, seasonal gift guides, and in-depth profiles of artists and creatives around the globe. Come have a read, and feel free to say hello!
