About Me

From the moment I started remixing ramen noodles into gourmet meals and spending hours watching cooking shows as a puny six-year-old, I knew I found a deep passion for food. While I realized — after taking on a two-year high school internship in an award-winning kitchen — that a restaurant wouldn't be my forever home, I knew the world of food would. I graduated from Syracuse University as their first-ever food studies major, researching policies contributing to equitable food systems. From there, I went on to work for various food non-profits, CPGs, farms, and tech companies. Over the past few years, I pivoted to food writing and producing full-time as a freelancer, with words and podcast episodes showing up in Eater, America's Test Kitchen, Cuisine Noir, Serious Eats, Food & Wine, and Food52. I love creating easily digestible (sometimes geeky) but always fun or important news stories and testing recipes in my kitchen.
