Hi, I’m Marissa. I’m a writer in Boise, Idaho.

I write From Boise, a free weekly newsletter about life in Boise. I send it every week, twice a week at 2:08 pm.

Every Tuesday, I share a long-form story about a person, place, piece of history, or current happening in Boise, Idaho. Every Thursday, I curate a huge list of fun things to do this weekend in Boise and beyond.

I co-founded From Boise in 2021 with Nathan Barry. You can subscribe for free at fromboise.com. If you have a story idea or are interested in sponsoring From Boise, please email me at marissa@fromboise.com

I’m also the publicist & copywriter for Treefort Music Fest and Duck Club Entertainment. I occasionally take on other freelance writing projects, though most of my time these days is dedicated to my newsletter.

When I’m not typing away, I’m outside, out of service, at a show, or curled up with a cat & a good book.

Instructions for living a life.
Pay attention.
Be astonished.
Tell about it.
