I was born and raised in New York City and lived there for most of my life before deciding to make the move to Los Angeles and the greener pastures of Top Cow. After graduating from Hunter College of the City University of New York in 1995, I held a few jobs before winding up at Wizard Entertainment in the fall of 1998, where I rose from copy editor to managing editor. In 2002, I left Wizard to try my hand at my own business, but when it subsequently went belly up in 2004, I returned to Wizard where I served as the Editorial Director until 2007. In January 2008, I joined Top Cow and I’ve been loving it ever since.
