Experience
One of my first loves is baking and cooking. I’ve been creating recipes for over 30 years. Unfortunately, mothering all my babies added to my waistline. After my 4th baby, I became determined to lose ALL the baby weight. And I did!
Expertise
The kitchen has always been a joy filled place in my life. I’ve tried whole30, low carb, keto, the South Beach Diet, intermittent fasting, Trim Healthy Mama, and paleo over the last 15 years. Even in the midst of dieting and weight loss food should bring JOY. I have lost over 50 pounds and enjoyed every bite.
Education
I have a Bachelor’s Degree from Rutgers University in Visual Arts with a concentration in Photography. With a love of food and a background in photography, food photography was a natural choice. I am available for professional food photography in Central NJ and the surrounding areas.
Fun Fact
I remember rolling out pie crust with my grandmother and sprinkling the scraps with cinnamon and sugar to make little cookies. The rolling pin in my logo is a drawing of the rolling pin she passed down to me. I love having that little part of my grandmother here today.
