Michelle's life is a colorful map of exploration and adventure. From the iconic streets of New York to the sunny shores of Florida, the jagged coast of Maine to the rugged terrain of Montana, she's been fortunate to call some of America's most beautiful states home. Beyond the U.S., Michelle's wanderlust has taken her on a motorcycle journey through India, led her to teach English in Hanoi, and saw her studying Spanish in Guatemala. Michelle graduated with a communications degree from the S. I. Newhouse School of Public Communications at Syracuse University and in addition to a career in advertising has worked with OnlyInYourState since 2016, where her love for travel and storytelling converges. Alongside writing and exploring, Michelle finds joy in photography, staying active, and time with her family.

Ask anyone from anywhere in America what they think of Maine and “urban life” probably isn’t the first thing you’ll hear. Maine is well known for its stunning wilderness, its rivers and lakes, its craggy Atlantic coastline and its postcard-perfect small towns, but cities? With apologies to Bangor and Lewiston, many people would contend we have only one “real” city — but it just so happens that said city is getting more and more national attention for its amazing amenities and quality of life.
