Expertise

Lara enjoys sharing experiential stories with her readers, whether she’s testing out a viral new wellness trend, trying the latest BeautyTok hack, or mapping out an under-the-radar travel itinerary for a popular destination. While she covers a wide range of topics, she is particularly passionate about writing stories that help make wellness more attainable for everyone, as well as approaching the many viral self-care trends with a critical lens.

Experience

Lara has always dreamed of being a journalist. Since diving into the world of digital publishing post-college, she’s worn many hats, including covering celebrity news and fashion as well as women’s lifestyle topics. From 2018 until early 2024, she worked at Elite Daily as both a writer and an editor, writing stories in the wellness, travel, style/beauty, food, and pop culture verticals from an experiential lens. Today, Lara covers similar topics for publications like Apartment Therapy, InStyle, Bustle, PS (formerly PopSugar), and Business Insider.

Fun Stuff

When Lara’s not writing, you can find her planning her next trip, trying the latest wellness trend (the weirder, the better), and mapping out her next foodie adventure in Chicago.
