I was born in Providence, Rhode Island, and raised on Narragansett beaches, clam chowder, and Del’s Lemonade.

However, the city called to me, and after graduating Hofstra University with a B.S. in Video/Television Production, I chose to call New York home, permanently.

Early in my career, I worked in-studio and on-location to create digital content for brands such as Vogue, Allure, Glamour, Walmart, and Seefood Media.

For four years, I worked at NBCUniversal, creating promotional content for Peacock’s original programming. We operated much like an agency in that I followed each piece of creative from concept to final approval.

Towards the end of 2024, I decided I wanted to connect with people who shared my love for reading, so I started @gabbyreadthat on Instagram. Since then, I have amassed roughly 1.5k followers, read an alarming amount of books (somewhere around 130), and found a passion for helping others rekindle their love for reading.
