About me: Hi! I'm a New Jersey journalist who grew up in Matawan/Aberdeen, Freehold, and Old Bridge. I've also published two novels, one of which was adapted into a nerdy holiday romantic comedy that's currently streaming on Netflix (called Carrie Pilby). I believe in the power of local journalism to do so much good in large and small ways. Reach me at caren.lissner@patch.com
