I graduated from Le Cordon Bleu in 2012 and from UCLA with a degree in Mass Communications in 2007. For the majority of my career I worked in digital media and technology news as Editorial Producer for paidContent.org and later, with GigaOM.com, after it acquired paidContent in early 2012. Most recently, I worked with the Los Angeles Times. In December 2012 I created and self-published an iPad-exclusive cookbook, "10 Sandwich Recipes for Every Meal of the Day", which has been downloaded over 1,000 times.
Recent work with the Los Angeles Times, covering events and restaurant openings:
