I have written three books and have a thriving website, thebestbrainpossible.com. My website originally started as a place for me to share my mental health journey and what I had learned about our amazing brain and guiding it towards optimal mental and physical health as I recovered from a brain injury. Over time, it has developed into more of a science-based resource for people to understand the basics of their minds and brains and how to use them to improve their overall health and lives. My website covers everything from trauma, depression, stress, and mindfulness to the enteric nervous system, Alzheimer’s, epigenetics, and neuroplasticity. I’ve found that I enjoy researching and science writing. It’s like hunting for the right pieces of a puzzle and fitting them together in a precise way to complete a finished picture. And I’m pretty good at it too. I’ve become known for explaining complex topics in easy-to-understand English. Over my career, I’ve worked in sales, marketing, communications, and public relations, administration, and more in a wide range of industries, including commercial real estate, software, retail, hospitality, higher education, health and wellness, and more. As of July, I am a full-time freelance writer. For the past five years, I was a communications specialist for a grant in a department in the College of Business and Economics at a local university where I managed social media pages, created a bi-annual newsletter, ensured the grant website had fresh, up-to-date content, images, and video, created, maintained, and marketed to several mailing lists, design miscellaneous promotional collateral, administred a digital badge program, and whatever other odd jobs landed on my desk. In my free time, I’m a hot yoga-holic. I also like to read a variety of genres from neuroscience to thrillers, eat fresh veggies out of my garden and the occasional dandelion from my yard, take invigorating walks in the sunshine, do cardio and light weights in an attempt to defy aging, and hold lively, albeit one-sided, conversations with my feline family.
