About

Hi there! I am a freelance food stylist and recipe developer. I work across a variety of foods and beverages products, and I bring years of specialty experience in baking, cake decorating, and decorated cookies.

In previous lives, I spent 8 years in a test kitchen creating recipes and engineering kitchen equipment for home cooks. I’ve baked and decorated thousands of cakes and cookies, in bakeries around Chicago and won an episode of food network’s cupcake wars. I love cooking and demonstrating in front of the camera too, and have several years of media training and on-camera experience for multiple food brands.

I live and work in Chicago, and am available to travel for your shoot.
