Editor's Notes

November 13, 2018:

Chose the Melissa & Doug Railway due to its high-quality construction and large number of track sections, which allows for a variety of configurations. Included the Pidoko Kids Pirate and Bigjigs Rail Fairy Town for their fun themes and accessories, and the Brio Beginner as an option for younger ages.

Originally from a tiny town in Virginia, Gabrielle moved to Los Angeles for a marketing internship at a well-known Hollywood public relations firm and was shocked to find that she loves the West Coast. She spent two years as a writer and editor for a large DIY/tutorial startup, where she wrote extensively about technology, security, lifestyle, and home improvement. A self-professed skincare nerd, she’s well-versed in numerous ingredients and methods, including both Western and Asian products. She is an avid home cook who has whiled away thousands of hours cooking and obsessively researching all things related to food and food science. Her time in the kitchen has also had the curious side effect of making her an expert at fending off attempted food thievery by her lazy boxer dog.
