About Me
Hey, I'm Laura Brzyski (brisk-ee): a Philly-based writer, fitness fanatic, & dog lover. Currently, I am an MFA candidate at Rutgers-Camden, seeking a degree in Creative Nonfiction. I also serve as the part-time Digital Contributor for Be Well Philly, Philadelphia magazine's health and wellness section. In all my professional and personal circles, I am an advocate for social justice, coalition building, and empathetic dialogue. Overall, my strongest skills include content writing, editing, & facilitating team success.
If you couldn't tell from my photos, I am an avid traveler. Because I learn best through experiential discovery, global curiosity catalyzes many of my decisions (& my wallet). In the past several months, I have learned how to make paella in Barcelona, created my own walking mural tour through Nashville's 12th South, hiked through Shenandoah National Park, drove Iceland's Golden Circle, and watched the Eagles beat the Jaguars across the pond at Wembley. While I know I can't be a professional tourist (even though I'm great at it!), I would love to become a storyteller for a brand, city, &/or travel organization. I value cultural landscapes that are rich and diverse in history, community, food, and entertainment.
You can find my published work in the "Writing" section of my site and my musings in the "Blog" section of my site.
