ABOUT

Welcome! I'm Marianne.

I've been writing and editing for as long as I can remember--way before it became my career. Through my child and teen years, I spent hours writing stories, songs and poems. As a university student, I continued writing but also proofread and fine-tuned numerous friends' resumes and academic works, as well as freelanced for major institutions editing websites, press releases, marketing materials and more.

I spent about six years working at a natural skin-care company, which is where my interests in beauty, health, and wellness grew into a passion.

In 2017, after a year-long maternity leave, I switched gears and put my knack for words to work with a career in media and publishing. I started editing and writing for Style at Home magazine on a permanent basis.

Fast-forward to 2023. I've held the position of deputy editor at Canadian Living magazine for almost four years now. This means I'm responsible for curating and composing fun, unique and relevant lifestyle content for one of Canada's most recognized and beloved brands for women (reaching over 4 million readers in print and digitally on a monthly basis!).

This website features all of my published articles, which are divided into categories (fashion, beauty, home, and lifestyle) for easy perusal.

Enjoy!
