Soy un friki (I'm a total nerd). The majority of my daily-news diet has to do with microbiome research.  So, it's a real treat when I get to put some of this to use. Here's a quickie social-media video I produced.

​My first print and video feature out of my Barcelona, Spain highlights an innovative campaign here to advance the social health of those facing dementia. 

It's always a treat to focus on underreported international stories of empowerment. Here's to many more in the coming months.

A strong relationship with your neighbors may help you survive a disaster. But many people don’t even know those who live nearby. Nextdoor, a social networking site and app, aims to help people connect.

Gluten-Free Diet: Healthy or Just a Fad?

Consumers are inundated with competing claims about how – and what — they should eat.  Even a once tiny trend like the gluten-free diet has turned into a blockbuster. But is a diet without gluten really healthy?


Since producing this video, I scrutinize food labels.

Beer-Chugging Runners Gut it Out

5/29/2014

A video I produced featuring the digestive-athletic event: Beer-mile racing. 

The rules: Chug four beers and run a mile. Do it in under 4:57 and you break the world record.



(The work I do at WSJ is so varied. Within a week, I reported on the serious implications of the Isla Vista Shooter followed by this quirky beer-chugger competition.)

Tech Me Out at the Ballgame

Picture
I shot a tech report last week in S.F. at the Giants vs Dodgers game...in my Dodger-blue jacket. I got some sideways glances from the players and a "what were you thinking" from my husband. Little do folks know our son (who left the hospital sporting a Giants jersey) shares his name with a Giants player.


The video report focused on how Apple's iBeacon technology is being used to engage fans at the ballpark.

I produced a segment on the missing Boeing 777. It's an attempt to cut through the misinformation and summarize what we know thus far.
