About Me

Though I was born and raised in New York City, I’ve lived in SoCal for over ten years now and am proud to call this beautiful and diverse place my home. My husband and I have a son and daughter who are the reason I started this website: to help protect the planet for their futures.

Prior to becoming a mama, I spent several years in feature film publicity and acquisitions for Miramax and later as the Creative Executive for Hilary Swank Productions before seguing to the music industry where I did Online Communications for the GRAMMY Foundation and MusiCares. In my ample pre-parenthood free time, I also freelanced as a script analyst and screenwriter.

Now, in addition to being the founder/owner of Eco Friendly Mama, I am the Managing Editor for the Orange County Moms Blog where I began my public blogging career. I am also a nature lover, foodie, avid traveler, preschool board member, and unabashed Disney nut.

If you haven’t yet already, please read my mission statement to learn more about how Eco Friendly Mama came to be.
