About Me

Amelia is originally from San Diego, CA but really doesn’t know what all the fuss is about. She went to school in Santa Cruz, where she put herself through college (getting a degree in Journalism along the way) making soy lattes and icky smelling chai tea. After internships at Jane and Interview, she moved to New York and worked for Rolling Stone and Maxim, wrote articles for Nylon, Teen Vogue, Everyday With Rachael Ray, and Marie Claire UK, and rocked the unemployment line twice. She once got botox in the name of journalism, but missed being able to scowl at people. She lives with her extremely handsome boyfriend...err, fiance… and their amazing dog Lucca who she’s pretty sure is more awesome than all adorable babies combined. Oh yeah, and despite editing this site, she’s a little prudish. Go figure!
