Puerto Rico in 1.5 days!? Ok, il take it! What INCREDIBLE culture, people, food, and art to discover. Really very grateful for these mere days there and the work that I have been sent out to explore. So where did I go next? The Virgin Islands of course and yes maybe these are “vacation” destinations,…
Oh Goodness! One of the challenges of working as an associate culinary producer is learning how to go with the flow and be spontaneous.

I have another pasta recipe with Benedetto Cavalieri pasta coming your way!!! Here is a sneak peek below: I am also working on a collaboration with Perfect Puree…
Get The Scoop Here It amazed me, all of the unique ice cream flavors at the quaint, tucked away Alleyway Ice Cream spot. Sure, you find lots of concepts similar to this in big cities, but Julian Hom’s ice cream doesn’t compare to anything I’ve seen upstate. His flavor combos are developed through the critical…
My official African name was given to me at the naming ceremony hosted by a Queen in one of the regions of Ghana. I can hardly say much about the experience other than the simple fact that this was a true nose dive into the culture of the country. I felt welcomed and warmed and…
Akwaaba~ The first word you notice once you enter the country. I haven’t had the time to wrap my head around the journey until this very moment that I sit and write and think and glow at the thought of my trip here with PowerHouse. I am hopeful that my gratitude is visual! …
