Since I was a small girl, I've loved food - eating it,
cooking it and serving it. I used to look through old cookbooks that
belonged to grandmothers or great-grandmothers and read the recipes
until they became like old friends. Even if I had no idea what cream of
tartar was, I knew how much I needed for that cake on page 40 in the
Better Homes and Gardens dessert cookbook. I never made any of those
cakes, but they held hours of fascination for me!

As I grew up, my love of the arts drew me into singing, later
into costume designing, and finally into theatrical wardrobe which
would become my first career. I spent several years being a Broadway
dresser - performing those magically quick costume changes and making
sure our actors looked appropriate when they hit the stage. Living in
New York - especially while cable's Food Network was really hitting its
stride - re-invigorated my love of all things edible. Only this time, I
decided to really do something about it.

I attended and graduated from the culinary arts program at the Art Institute of New York City
in 2004. I spent time working at Bobby Flay's restaurant Bolo
and was a Garde Manger line cook at Dan Silverman's Lever
House on Park Avenue. I am a member of Women Chefs and Restaurateurs,
the United States Personal Chef Association, as well as being
certified in sanitation and safety practices by ServSafe.
