Rachel Torres is a lifestyle writer and editor with a background in health communications and personal finance. Over the past decade, she has tested hundreds of apps, tracked fitness trends, navigated the healthcare system firsthand, and written practical guides that cut through the noise. Every article she publishes is fact-checked against primary sources because she got tired of reading advice that was vaguely right but specifically useless. She lives in the Northeast and spends her free time reading research papers that normal people would never open voluntarily.
