After writing two articles for the OC Family newspaper section, I was contracted to be a monthly columnist for the magazine. My column on the 0-2 age range began in January 2014.

And beyond anecdotes, I shared information on the main things to be wary of when posting information about one’s child online.Read More →

Link: The evolution of mom I was asked to write about how motherhood has changed over the past 100 years. I first tackled the topic by thinking of the main themes: technology, family structures, jobs, communities and the state of the country. I read stories autobiographical stories on how mothering has changed and I reviewed statistical information collected by the Census and federal agencies. My main subjects were a mother, her mother and her grandmother who I found by contacting local moms organizations.Read More →
