Not only did Wendy complete multiple media internships in college while working toward her journalism degree, but she dabbled lightly in freelance writing. Upon graduation, she obtained a reporting job at an Indianapolis newspaper. Thirsty for travel—and not keen on writing about local pageants and petty crime—she ultimately decided to move to South Korea to teach English as a Second Language (ESL) where she simultaneously pursued freelance writing. For over a decade, Wendy has thrived as a freelance reporter for household media outlets, including Real Simple, NBC, BravoTV, Allure Magazine, Today, Business Insider, The Zoe Report, TripSavvy, Bustle, and others. She covers most topics that falls under the wellness umbrella, including beauty and skincare, hair care, mental and physical wellness, travel, home, and pets. Over the years, Wendy has built rapport with experts in the field, including dermatologists and estheticians, celebrity makeup artists and hair stylists, travel authorities, wellness gurus, veterinarians, interior designers, and more. In addition to traditional journalism, Wendy has been tapped by leading lifestyle brands to help with SEO strategy, content creation, and reporting. These brands include Nordstrom, L’Oreal, Shiseido, Chewy, Supergoop, Soko Glam, and others.
