Clippings
I write on a variety of subjects, ranging from travel to adventure racing, business stories, food & wine, spa experiences, winter and summer sports, weddings and book reviews. I have interviewed photographers, writers, jewelery makers, Tai Chi instructors, chefs and Olympic Gold Medalists.
I have written for The Vancouver Sun, Vancouver Magazine, Canadian Health & Lifestyle, The Province, Pique Newsmagazine, Whistler Question, Mountain Life, Coast Mountain Culture, Whistler Traveller, and Whistler The Magazine, as well as reporting for Shaw TV.
