What are some of the media outlets you work with
The Calgary Herald, my own site (Betterthansittingathome.com)
What is a favourite experience being a journalist
I always love getting to know new people, and getting thrown into new and off the beaten path experiences. I never know what will happen when I work on a story, and I wouldn't have it any other way!
Why do you contribute to Snow and FestivalSeekers
I love the variety - I get to learn about so many experiences and events that might not otherwise be on my radar. There's so much to see and do.
What made you start a blog
I've also loved storytelling and travelling - these two things help us all lead richer lives, and opens us up to new experiences. I wanted to share my worldview and experiences in a compelling and authentic way.
