Parents Magazine

With a circulation of 2.2 million, Parents Magazine has been the largest parenting publication in the U.S. for decades.  After relaunching its website in 2004, I was asked to move to the print product as a senior editor. I was quickly promoted to features editor, assigning and editing features and departments focused on baby and childcare issues, product reviews, beauty,  relationships, and new technologies. I was also named editor-in-chief of Parents Baby, a biannual spin-off publication aimed at parents of newborns.

Here's a small sampling of my work at Parents. For complete samples, please
