The blog articles on NYCwebzine are written by a small, hand-picked group of freelance writers who share one thing in common: a genuine passion for New York City and its energy, culture, people, and stories.
Each contributor brings their own background and beat to the publication. Together, they cover the topics that matter most to our readers, with the independence and depth that only good freelance journalism can offer.
Daniel Hartman
Daniel Hartman studied finance at Wharton and spent 12 years on Wall Street before walking away from trading floors to write about the forces shaping them. He covers New York's financial ecosystem, the city's exploding tech scene, and the entrepreneurs rewriting the rules of American business. His work is sharp, well-sourced, and never afraid to call out what the numbers really mean.
Giulia Ferretti
Giulia Ferretti grew up between Milan's fashion houses and Florence's art galleries before landing in New York with a masters in fashion journalism from Politecnico di Milano. Eight years later, she writes about the city's style scene, wellness culture, and the creative communities that make New York the most exciting place on earth to live. Her work brings an Italian eye for beauty and craft to a city that never stops reinventing itself.
Maya Johnson
Maya Johnson grew up in Crown Heights, Brooklyn, in a neighbourhood where every block told a different story. She studied journalism at Columbia and has spent her career writing about the city she knows better than anyone: its hidden corners, its contradictions, its food, and its people. From the best jerk chicken in Flatbush to rooftop bars in Long Island City that tourists never find, Maya writes New York from the inside out.
