    Welcome. I'm a creative writer, copy editor, and journalist. Whether writing or editing my own words, or someone else's, I thrive on diving into the details and creating stories. My writing covers a broad swathe of topics from hyper local issues in DC – culture, politics, transit, urbanism, equity – to parenting and humor (Points in Case and The Weekly Humorist are rumored to carry a few of my by-lines). I spent two years working working as a copy editor for a hyper-local newspaper in D.C. Part of my mission was catching errors and tightening sentence structure. The other, and more important, part of my mission was sourcing content from the community that told its story. I also did my own investigative reporting – focused on community-driven stories. As well as writing and producing news, I've ghostwritten articles for top-tier publications, done extensive fact checks for trending news, proofread and edited graduate level essays, and provided beta reads, proofreads, and edits for authors. A highlight from 2022 was working Walking Cinema on the "Before the Bulldozers" walking tour as an on-site reporter and researcher in DC. If you have a story to tell, or just need someone to make your writing shine, we should work together.

She provides a high level of service and is a fast worker. She is very easy to communicate with." "Lucy went above and beyond for a tight turnaround job -- not only did she do a great job proofreading, she made lots of helpful suggestions on how to improve our copy." "She thinks seriously about the job scope given and clarified details before actually jumping into the job."

    To be honest, I prefer telling other people’s stories to telling my own. But I'd like to give it a go with these five quick statements written by me, about my work. 1. Relationships are at the center of everything I do. Whether I'm connecting with a source or finding a non-profit campaign partner -- I believe good storytelling is built on good relationships. 2. My list of experiences as a community storyteller includes data-driven journalism, live event coverage, feature writing, digital marketing, photojournalism, podcast production, action campaigning, and more. 3. One of my most memorable stories was published across the country last year in collaboration with the Howard Center for Investigative Journalism. I interviewed sources, ran data analysis, and chased documents for a national story about workplace safety during the pandemic. 4. I piloted a profile series in the Boston Globe’s Newton section to highlight the city’s “unsung heroes.” Inspired by ‘Overlooked’ and my passion for stories about lives lived, this series of profiles highlighted Newton’s community leaders. 5. If there's one thing I know to be true, it's this: Words have power. As a storyteller, my goal is to learn how I can harness that power to churn out meaningful stories that reflect and resonate with my community.
