Welcome to all things Sassy!

I’m the Sassy Urbanista, welcome to my writer’s corner. In this space you’ll find my thoughts and opinions about everything and anything - from big and newsworthy headlines, new technologies, the latest in beauty and lifestyles, entertainment, cooking and more. It'll also be a place where I can discuss what's happening in my career, as well as, my family life. 
You may be wondering who I am and why you should follow my blog, right? I’m a Toronto-based writer, photographer, movie-goer, music lover, daughter, sister, friend, wife, and mother of two. The ever-changing world of journalism is a past paced one, and if you’re not passionate enough or aggressive enough, it’ll eat you alive. Because of my determination to break into this industry, I was fortunate to my start at Metro Newspaper as a freelancer covering the first season of Canadian Idol. In a matter of months, I was offered a full-time gig as staff writer where I wrote for a variety of sections including news, business, education, food and health, lifestyles, entertainment, and technology, to name a few. 
That stint lasted for almost seven years, until it was time to move on to bigger and better things. Today, I’m writing for ChickAdvisor.com, LipstickPowderNPaint.com, T.O.Night Newspaper, 2: The Magazine for Couples, Rue Morgue Magazine and the newest addition to my long roster of gigs, Top Choice Magazine
Top Choice Magazine, is a business magazine that showcases award-winning businesses, as well as, providing information on everything business related. We review businesses (cafes, restaurants, hair salons, spas, hotels, financial institutions, lawyers, car dealerships, mechanics and more) who are being recognized for their excellence, we provide our readers with informative articles on how to run a successful business, tips and tricks on being a successful business professional, the latest in technology and social media, coverage on meaningful local events, and more. It’s an exciting job that has me constantly on the go, doing something fun and different every day. 
So, there you have it, just a little bit about who I am, what I do and who I do it for. So what do you think of my new space? This is also the spot where you can leave me your thoughts too. It’s a place where we can voice our opinions, and if need be, agree to disagree. 
Stay Sassy,
Sassy Urbanista
