  • Heather Menicucci

    Heather has always been a big fan of all things DIY and is the author of Let's Get Primitive: The Urban Girl's Guide to Camping, based on her article for BUST magazine. As Howcast's Director of Production, it was a blast for Heather to get a shot on the other side of the camera as a Howcast expert. She lives in Brooklyn, New York, but still tries to pitch her tent as often as possible.
