HI THERE — IT’S NICE TO MEET YOU!
WELCOME TO A TOUCH OF TEAL, A LIFESTYLE BLOG BASED IN THE WASHINGTON, DC AREA WHERE I SHARE MY HOME DECOR, TRAVELS, RECENT READS, AND RESTAURANT RECOMMENDATIONS.
Whether you’re looking for the home decor inspiration, a new book to read, a DC area restaurant recommendation, a new travel destination to dream about, or just reflections on life, I appreciate you being here and taking the time out of your busy day to read A Touch of Teal.
& in case you’re curious, here’s a little more about me —
Why is your blog called A Touch of Teal?
When I was selecting a name for my blog in 2014, I knew I wanted something that I wouldn’t grow out of or get sick of easily. My middle name is Teal — after my Grandma’s maiden name — and since it’s so meaningful, I thought incorporating it into my blog name would be timeless and a nice way to honor my family.
Where do you live? Where are you from?
I live in Arlington, Virginia about a mile outside of Washington, DC. I was born in Durham, North Carolina, but consider Fairfax, Virginia home.
Do you work full time?
Yes! I work full time — A Touch of Teal is my passion project I dedicate time to on nights and weekends.
Where did you go to school?
I double majored in Media Studies and American Studies at the University of Virginia and went on to earn my Masters in Public Relations and Corporate Communications at Georgetown University.
I’d love to hear from you —
