About me

I am a writer, editor, recipe developer and tester, and publishing consultant with more than 15 years of professional publishing experience and a specialty in cookbooks and other illustrated lifestyle categories.
After 8 years in the NYC publishing scene—the last three of which were spent at Clarkson Potter, Random House's cookbook and illustrated lifestyle imprint—I decided to leave my corporate gig in 2011 to pursue a freelance career. Now, I live in Philadelphia and spend my days working directly with authors, publishers, and various organizations as a recipe editor, recipe tester, cookbook publishing consultant, copyeditor, writer, content strategist, and project manager. I have worked with a wide range of clients, from Food Network stars, nutritionists, and culinary legends, to textile designers, crafters, and master gardeners. Each project I take on is a chance to learn something new and to help an author, publisher, or organization put their best work forward.
I am also the author of The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Pizza Cookbook, and writer/creator of the recipe websites ThursdayNightPizza.com and EveryNightMeals.com.
