About Me
Thank you for visiting!
I’m a writer, an editor, and a podcaster, primarily covering fashion and beauty, society and culture, and, most especially, the British Royal Family.
I am the current royals editor (and former weekend editor) at Marie Claire, where I cover the latest in royal family and celebrity news. I am also the editor of What Meghan Wore, a site dedicated to the Duchess of Sussex’s wardrobe, lifestyle, and work. I am the former editor at About Town, a magazine dedicated to the social scene of Birmingham, Alabama—where I call home.
More than anything, I am a writer, and I contribute to outlets like Allure, Cosmopolitan, Elle, Glamour, Harper’s Bazaar, InStyle, People, Vanity Fair, Vogue, and W, among others.
I am also a podcaster—I cohost Podcast Royal, a show that examines the British Royal Family and other royal families around the world. I host I’d Rather Be Reading, which spotlights the best current reads—99 percent of them nonfiction—and interviews the authors of them. I’ve appeared on other shows like NBC’s Today Show, CNN's New Day, Cheddar News, Royally Us, Kennedy Dynasty, Say It Southern, The Style That Binds Us, History of the '90s, and The Wealth Edit.
I was born and raised in Topeka, Kansas and graduated from the University of Kansas with a bachelor's degree in journalism and mass communications in 2009 and the University of Mississippi with a master’s degree in higher education administration in 2011. After six years of freelance writing on the side while pursuing a career in higher education, in 2017 I took the leap and finally became a full-time writer after none other than Khloé Kardashian gave me my big break. I was a business journalist for four years before stepping out as a full-time freelance writer in 2021. In 2022, my first book, The Wealth Edit Guidebook, was released.
When I’m not working, you can find me at the spa, reading (I meant it when I said I’d Rather Be Reading), traveling, painting, watching sports, or being in or on the water somewhere—any beach, lake, pool, or river will do. And, as important as my career is to me, nothing matters more to me than those I fiercely love.
