ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Jeanne Petrizzo is a writer and communications professional with experience in a variety of sectors, including higher ed, healthcare, and travel. Her home improvement knowledge and experience can be accredited largely to her brother-in-law and to YouTube, two resources she utilized frequently to make more economic repairs and updates around her townhome. Currently, she lives in the Boston area in an apartment, where she enjoys tinkering with rental- and budget-friendly decor and improvements, while also not worrying about major home repair expenses. Jeanne holds a master's degree in communication from Clemson University, and in her spare time, she genuinely does enjoy long walks on the beach. Find her on LinkedIn.
