I love to eat.
This love of good food and memorable meals is how I got into the food and restaurant business. And boy, am I glad I followed my passion! I get to do what I love every day.
My unconventional career has followed a tasty road that has included culinary school, opening my own restaurant, writing four cookbooks, being a restaurant consultant, styling food for print and TV, developing recipes for corporations and writing about my hometown restaurant community.
I am beyond excited about the new chapter that officially started this week.
