Writer
Helly Schtevie writes how-to articles geared to middle Americans for a soft newswire. While her know-it-all-ism fuels the bulk of her content, she occasionally relies on scientific study results to prove a point. She is one-half of the musical comedy duo, "People You May Know," champions of a Zipcar sponsored talent show. She used to share her musings on one form of chemistry for the blog of the kosher meat market that is JDate, but now keeps her romantic proceedings less a matter of public record. Her faith in science is blind.
