Lisa M.

I am an award-winning writer and editor, with a talent for rendering even the most technical material in a conversational tone that is easy for readers to digest. Although my particular specialties include travel, fitness, all things outdoors, and profiles of interesting personalities, I thrive on the challenge of turning even the most mundane topics into interesting copy. Over the course of my 19-year career I've written three award-winning guidebooks; served as senior editor at Alaska magazine; published hundreds of articles in the likes of National Geographic, Condé Nast Traveler, the Wall Street Journal, Wirecutter, Outside Online, Fodor's Travel, the New Zealand Herald, and many more; and worked as an editorial consultant at nationally ranked websites. Recent kudos include: - Silver Award from the North American Travel Journalists Association - 6 Excellence In Craft Awards from the Northwest Outdoor Writers Association
