Experience
In 2017, Lacey Muinos graduated from college a semester early. She earned her degree in English in just 3.5 years. Shortly after, she landed her first full-time position as a Content Manager at a skin care startup in Southern California.
Her career led her to pursuing digital media. She began writing online content for well-known brands and publications.
With her experience in skin care, Lacey pursued writing in beauty and skin health. Her personal interest in clean beauty led her to writing for The Good Face Project.
Around this time, Lacey also became passionate about her vegan diet and healthy lifestyle. This led her down a rabbit hole of learning about nutrition, fitness, and other health topics. She applied this knowledge to her work in writing for LIVESTRONG, Healthline, InBody, and more.
Lacey started writing for Dotdash in 2019. She has written for Verywell Fit, Simply Recipes, and The Spruce Eats.
Since then, she has also written for brands like EltaMD, Nature Made, DivaCup, and Girl Scouts USA.
Education
