Selected Writing

I write about the food, hospitality, and CPG (among other topics that intersect like travel, AI, etc.) I am particularly interested in equity in all forms, including queer food and climate justice.

In 2025, I wrote a Costco beat for Business Insider and contributed to Barsys, a cocktail and tech platform, and Static Media’s portfolio brands like Tasting Table.

I also write a series titled FAMILY MEAL: a monthly newsletter series featuring hand-picked interviews with voices from the food, beverage, and hospitality world.
