Aimee Heckel

Aimee is the editor of Women's Magazine, as well as a features writer and fashion columnist for The Daily Camera. Aimee committed her life to writing in kindergarten, when her teacher asked her what she wanted to be when she grew up. She said a writer and a cheerleader, like the mouse at Showbiz Pizza. Until she lands a mouse-cheerleader gig, she will continue journalism, the best way she's figured out how to (sort of) earn money playing with words. Aimee loves editing Women's Magazine because she considers herself a feminist -- but not the stereotypical man-bashing, protesting kind. She is obsessed with all things girly and yin, from twirly dresses to powerful goddesses, and all of the ways in between that the female nature enhances this world. Aimee likes to disclaim that she's a direct descendant of Lady Godiva; crazy, rule-breaking women come with her blood. Blog: The Boulder and the Beautiful, www.boulderandthebeautiful.com.
