For the cover of the March issue of Health magazine, I sat down for the second time with Pretty Little Liars star Ashley Benson. We met up at the Sunset Towers Hotel for lunch and talked all things squat-doing, party-going, food-eating, anxiety-beating, and happiness-making.

What an honor my latest assignment was: to sit down for a chat with comedy legend Carol Burnett for Parade magazine. Carol was everything I’d hope she’d be—warm, real, sharp, funny and kind—and I got to hear her do her Tarzan yell in full throttle, so…yeah, it was a good day. We talked about her groundbreaking skit […]
Here’s one my most recent cover stories, for Seventeen magazine, with actress and singer Bella Thorne. After sitting down to talk with her in her Los Angeles home, I get what all the celebrity fuss is about with Bella. She’s the real deal—literally. She’s honest, open, snarky, funny and driven as hell. And after a difficult childhood, she’s […]

One of my latest feature interviews allowed me to talk a lot about a topic I haven’t had a chance to cover before: ballet. The story was for the New York Post‘s ALEXA fashion special.

Time and again, Jillian Michaels is one of of my favorite people to interview. Jillian is a font of excellent health, fitness and—best of all—life experience. And this sit-down with her, for the October 2015 issue of Health magazine is yet one more dose of her best. When we met on the set of her new show […]
I guess it’s fall, then. My first autumn cover is for the September 2015 issue of Health magazine, where I sat down for coffee one morning in West Hollywood with Sophia Bush. Formerly of One Tree Hill, she’s now one of the stars of the NBC show Chicago P.D. and engaged in more than a few charitable organizations. Loved […]
For the August issue of Seventeen magazine, I met up with Shay Mitchell in Hollywood to talk to her about her inspiring, happy life.
