Professional/Personal Overview
For five-plus years, I have worked as a writer and editor at multiple food, travel, and lifestyle magazines, covering everything from dream kitchens and rental properties in Provence to fresh figs and how to make nut butters. I am an experienced recipe developer with a culinary diploma (and a raging sweet tooth) and an avid traveler. At present, I work as a freelance media relations manager for a Central America-based destination management company. You'll find my personal travel blog here: notquiteroughingit.com.
