My work is inspired by a lifelong relationship with food and literature. Both fascinate me for what they reveal about the human condition.

Outside of work, I garden, cook, collect antiques, spend too much time with my cats, and drink martinis. Some of my favorite pieces of literature include Wallace Stegner’s Angle of Repose, Marguerite Duras’ The Easy Life, Thalia Ho’s cookbook Wild Sweetness, and Wallace Stevens’ poem “Sunday Morning.” 

I live in Atlanta with my partner.
