Hi, I’m Mer!

I’m a lifestyle writer, blogger, and marketer! I love all things local to Phoenix, AZ. After nearly a decade of living in several big cities like Boston, NYC, and LA — Phoenix captured my heart and turned me into the desert gal I am today.

I focus on food, travel, and lifestyle. From local spots to local business owners, to the experiences in-between, I show and tell stories. My work has been featured in Downtown Phoenix, Visit Mesa, Downtown Tempe, and The Phoenix New Times.

I have been featured in AZ Central, The Know Book: 100 Women To Do Business With, Voyage Phoenix, Shoutout Arizona.

I love what I do, my motto is to “live colorfully!”
