about

Roo Ciambriello (that’s ru cham-bree-yellow) loves words.  Looking at them, writing them, reading them, and occasionally eating them.  (See: the times she said that rompers and leggings were a disgrace to humanity.  Also see: her closet, now holding rompers and leggings.)

Roo first gained notoriety through her storytelling humor blog, NiceGirlNotes, where she writes about awkward moments as a teenager, growing up with a fresh-off-the-boat Filipino mother, and her philosophy on dancing at weddings.  NGN has grown into a personal brand widely known in the blogging community and attracts a worldwide readership.  Unrelated: she’s huge in Sao Paolo.

NGN has been a catalyst for a number of writing, speaking, and media-ing opportunities, requiring Roo to keep close tabs on Merriam-Webster and launch a search for the perfect set of fake reading glasses to complement her ‘thinky face.’

She has worked with brands such as Maclaren, NBC, Disney, Elliott Lucca, Picaboo, Shutterfly, Filene’s Basement, Kidworth,  Shutterbooth, Edible Arrangements, Little Duck Organics, Aiming Low, Psi Bands, and various other companies.

Roo lives in a beach town in Connecticut with her musician husband, two little girls, and possibly a rabid raccoon.

“Um, I’ve been laughing so hard that I actually started crying.  A couple of coworkers poked their heads in my office to make sure I was okay.” – Brit, reader
