A Quick Bio

Picture
Since I completed my graduate degree in Food Studies and Gastronomy from Boston University I've been a Culinary Instructor, a Food Consultant and a Cheesemonger.  I've also done my share of recipe writing (for both large scale production and for publication) as well as some food writing and photography.

I was born in Toronto, and spent a good chunk of my late childhood living on the South Shore of Nova Scotia.  My undergrad degree is from the University of Toronto, where I received a BA with a double major in Studio Art and English.  The last year of my degree my studio projects revolved around food, which prompted me to pursue a culinary degree from the Cambridge School of Culinary Arts.

In my spare time I shelve drum & bass records, although beat matching still alludes me.  I live in Boston right now, but I like to travel frequently.  My guinea pig Henry turned five years old at the beginning of September, and I prefer tea over coffee.
