About

Hi, I’m Erica. My life goal was once to be a ballerina living the dream one beautifully chaotic New York City day at a time. Instead, I’m a writer—which isn’t so far off: I’ve swapped movement for language and stages for the always-buzzing venue that is the internet. (Thanks for joining me on this metaphorical journey.)

Currently, I’m the senior health writer at SELF. Previously, I ran the lifestyle vertical at Well+Good, editing and writing a grab bag of lifestyle-meets-wellness content. Before that, I worked on the editorial teams at Martha Stewart Living and Weddings, Prevention, and Washingtonian in various capacities. And prior to that, I graduated from Washington University in St. Louis, where I studied political science, writing, and Spanish.
