Hi!

I’m a Los Angeles-based writer, editor, and producer working at the intersection of food, culture, and place. I profile chefs and tastemakers, explore feminism and foodways, and craft brand storytelling across mediums. With an MFA in Creative Writing and WSET wine training, I love sensory detail and literary craft, while my background in hospitality and television production grounds projects in precision and execution. My favorite thing, though, is tapping into the energetic connection of cities I’ve called home.

I write about food through my Substack Culinaria (soon to evolve into a larger project, Sister Cities — stay tuned), and lead the occasional workshop.

Represented by Lily Dolin at Sterling Lord Literistic, I’m also working on my debut novel.
