SkatingPond.com (+socials) & @TrumbullCTLife (TikTok)
Bio
I have been professionally and happily creating content for over 25 years with my work appearing on/in NBC 4 NY, News 12 CT, Mommy Poppins CT, and Litchfield Magazine.
In 2023, I launched SkatingPond.com, a home makeover blog featuring Coastal French style, peppered with travel content, notable products, and other little joys. No hot takes here. This is a place to find beautiful and deeply helpful content for home, garden, and life. Skating Pond's accompanying social channels strive for a parallel quality curated to each platform -- authenticity and usefulness earn clicks and saves! Here's a perfect example of a CT-based business featured on Skating Pond's TT feed: https://www.tiktok.com/@skatingpond/video/7496639728448441642?is_from_webapp=1&sender_device=pc&web_id=7639063404255053342
In late February 2026, I started @TrumbullCTLife on TikTok, a hyper-local account documenting resources and life in my smallish Connecticut town. Keeping it simple and straightforward has worked. As of mid-May, it has climbed to 737 followers, growing about 10 new followers per day! I'm available to do the same for your Connecticut town. Example here with 34K views: https://www.tiktok.com/@trumbullctlife/video/7629411012671950111?is_from_webapp=1&sender_device=pc&web_id=7639063404255053342
With a background spanning major networks and Fortune 500 clients, I understand how to weave your wishes into content that captivates viewers -- please reach out to connect with me about your ideas!
