Committed to the well-being of humanity through effective communication

Deborah is an inspired, experienced storyteller and editorial consultant for both digital and print media. She writes noteworthy feature stories, blogs, and newsletter content; crafts eye-catching public relations materials; and is a ghostwriter ensuring a person’s story exceeds their hopes and goals.

While journalism has been the focus of her career, for many years Deborah wrote a blog that chronicled the soulful musings of her inner fairy, and explored the wisdom found in everyday life. She is thrilled to now be expanding that focus and writing her first novel.

Formerly a special needs advocate, Deborah is also a certified life coach helping others find their own inner magic.

She currently writes feature stories for the Harvard University Gazette (and previously for Gatehouse Media.) She lives in Boston with her husband, a longtime multimedia journalist, writer and photographer for Harvard University.
