About Me
In April 2017, I began walking from Georgia to Maine along the Appalachian Trail. I had
never written professionally before then, but when I finished that 159-day, 2,189.7-mile
hike, I went back to New Orleans and decided to give it a shot.
Since then I've written for local publications such as The Times-Picayune | The New
Orleans Advocate, Gambit Weekly, Very Local New Orleans and GoNOLA.com, as well as
technology companies like Align and nonprofit organizations such as 504ward. National
clients I have written for include Voice of America, Lonely Planet, CNN Underscored, Zagat,
Fodor's Travel, Rosetta Stone, Great Big Story and AlltimePower.
I love writing about food, travel and just about anything that helps me understand people
and their unique motivations better. There's little more fun to me than asking people
questions!
When I'm not writing, I like to explore and learn about New Orleans, one of America's
awesome national parks, or wherever else I happen to be traveling.
My focus these days is the book I'm working on, titled The Big Book of King Cake. It's the
first-ever coffee table book dedicated to king cake and will feature 75 of my favorite
Carnival cakes, as well as the diverse and talented bakers who make them.
And if you'd like to say hello or ask me a question, send me an email. I like answering
questions almost as much as I like asking them!
