Zanny has been writing professionally since 2018. Her essays and articles have been featured in National Geographic, Travel and Leisure, Lonely Planet, Fodor's, Business Insider, Newsweek, and Today, among other publications. Zanny started FGFW in the hopes of sharing lessons about time management, burnout, customer service, mental peace, and difficult client interactions that she earned from an unconventional life. She credits her experiences with chronic illness, living abroad as an expat, and working her way up in the restaurant industry with teaching her many of the skills she shares in her educational material. (Plus all the years of knocking on writing doors, of course). To learn more about Zanny and see her CV and portfolio, visit zannymerullo.com
