I offer affordable writing, marketing, and agritourism solutions for Farmers, Artisanal Food Brands, and Organizations interested in engaging Eaters in matters of food, farming, health, and ecology beyond the plate.

I started on this path as a Health Coach, where I quickly discovered that I could not have a real and honest conversation about food and wellness until I could change my clients’ relationship with food – real food, whole foods, sourced locally, ethically, and in season.

I bring over fifteen years of improvisational technique, performance, leadership development, and customer service to building community around food and farming.

I’d love to help you with your newsletter, blog, social media presence, and in-person marketing and outreach plans.

In 2012, I will be launching Farm to Fork Getaways, a seasonal agritourism project that connects NYC Eaters to farms and their communities, and the New York Locavore Experience a weekly blog column and membership club introducing readers and members to the locavore movement taking shape in NYC and beyond.

I’m also in the current class of LEAD New York, a two-year leadership development program for food and agriculture professionals.

I Build Community Around Good Food.
