I'm Payton, a feature writer and creative based between Buffalo and NYC. Before fashion, I was a journalist. After fashion, I'll be an icon.

I've most recently been the Editor-in-Chief, Managing Editor, and Senior Culture Editor of FIT’s esteemed Blush Magazine.

When I'm not writing, I follow my lifelong passion of figure skating by coaching local figure skaters to their goals. My work has inspired me to pursue my first book project, a memoir about the trials and triumphs that came along with growing up in the world of skating.
