hello! my name is alex, I write, edit, and educate. I get excited about finding new ways to engage with the next generation, and am passionate about sharing simple ways to live more sustainably. 

currently, I am the assistant editor at Scholastic's Action magazine. I am also a freelance writer covering eco-friendly living and family lifestyle. 

I earned my B.A in communications from the University of Michigan and my M.A in magazine writing from New York University. over the past five years, I've explored work in print, digital, and multi-media journalism with various brands including: Sesame Street, Martha Stewart Living, Departures, and Time Out New York. 

when I'm not writing, you can find me cooking (and composting), geeking out in a kid's craft supply aisle, or drinking coffee after 6 p.m.
