WRITER, EDITOR & CONTENT CREATOR
|
For eight years, I’ve hopscotched between the food and book worlds, as a writer, editor, and content creator.
I previously served as senior digital editor of Lunch Rush, where I managed the editorial production and helped launch a podcast and video series about local restaurants and industry trends, overseeing the editorial content. I also worked with national brands including P.F. Chang's, Orange Leaf, Paris Baguette, the app GasBuddy, as well as neighborhood restaurants such as Boston’s SaPa and Seattle's Happy Grillmore. Along the way, I profiled chef Barbara Lynch and barbecue pitmaster Andy Husbands and ghostwrote hundreds of food articles exploring everything from the best dishes in cities across the country to Korean and Georgian cuisine and emerging trends like robot chefs. Before becoming a food writer, I taught at the University of Massachusetts Amherst as a lecturer, teaching courses including Food Writing and Contemporary Fiction. From 2013 to 2020, I served as a book critic and website proofreader for Rain Taxi Review of Books. My editorial work there included proofreading essays by writers Ben Lerner and Anne Ursu, as well as interviews with the late Anthony Bourdain, Brian Evenson, and Samuel R. Delany. As an arts and culture journalist, I’ve also written for McSweeney’s, Kenyon Review, Kirkus Reviews, and other publications. In my downtime, I love running through open, sun-soaked spaces and nerding out about food, books, and art. |
