About Me: 

Hey there! I’m  Steph Auteri, a NJ-based writer, editor, and career coach.

At the moment, I am the Assistant Editor at YourTango, where I also manage LoveMom, a parenting blog. I also juggle a constantly-shifting assortment of freelance writing and editing assignments, and have recently begun coaching those looking to find their way in the publishing industry.

You can find my work in Time Out New York, New York Press, Playgirl, The Frisky, Nerve, Lemondrop, and other bastions of fine writing. When I’m not sitting in front of my computer (rare, of course), you can find me book worming, hoop dancing, or (the likeliest of all) watching DVRd episodes of NCIS.

If you’d like to cyber-stalk me, feel free to keep up on my day-to-day by visiting my Twitter page.
