Expertise

As PureWow’s senior food editor, I covered all things food and recipes, whether that’s a primer on all the types of steak you can find at the butcher to an exploration of the rise and fall of the cosmopolitan cocktail.

Experience

While I have more than seven years of experience writing and editing, I’ve worked in the food space in some capacity since 2016. Before joining PureWow’s editorial team in 2017, I worked as a pastry cook in New York City restaurants.

Education

After receiving my bachelor’s degree in English Literature and Art from the University of Notre Dame, I obtained a degree in Culinary Arts from the Institute of Culinary Education in New York City.
