Claim your profileI'm a journalist from the San Francisco Bay Area and am currently SFGATE's Travel Editor. I knew I wanted to be a journalist before I learned how to drive. My first love was music journalism which took me to New York City where I proudly joined the Village Voice as one of its last music writers before it folded. I then followed my heart home to Point Reyes where I served the local paper of record as a news reporter before contributing to the launch of a monthly lifestyle magazine called PUNCH that focuses on the Peninsula.
