Professional Bio

I’m a San Diego-based journalist and author covering the links between home and health – something that Covid made painfully clear. My latest book, Wellness by Design: Optimize Your Home for Health, Fitness and Happiness, was published by Simon & Schuster in September 2020 and won a prestigious Bruss Book Award from the National Association of Real Estate Editors (NAREE). I wrote and published a bonus chapter on my website in October 2023, sharing lessons learned from the pandemic.

I'm a senior contributor to Forbes.com on wellness design. I also write the Trend Spotting column for Kitchen & Bath Design News and contribute to Next Avenue, Multi-Housing News and numerous other publications on home design and wellness topics.
