MY Story

Hi, I’m Marissa.

Toronto Charleston, SC Denver Los Angeles

I'm a travel, culture, and lifestyle journalist with over four years of experience in content creation (reporting, copy editing, social media, fact-checking, and freelance management) for magazines and websites. Currently based in Los Angeles, I am interested in exciting ways to speak to readers and collaborate with a buzzing newsroom that’s not afraid to experiment. Community journalism is incredibly important to me; I am a firm believer that social media, stunning photography, compelling headlines, and an educated, engaging voice are all crucial to creating a successful news presence.

I’ve been published in 303 Magazine (where I was a frequent contributor), 5280 Magazine, Colorado Homes, Mountain Living, and YellowScene Magazine. I have also written travel guides for Calgary, Banff, and Jasper; London; Santa Barbara; Lake Tahoe and Reno; Seattle; Boise; and Burlington, Vermont and have traveled extensively throughout Canada, Morocco, Japan, France, and Iceland — to name just a few.

Let’s connect on that story you’re excited about!
