Hi, I'm Emily

I'm a writer, editor, and former private chef with a passion for storytelling and a deep respect for the people and traditions behind what we eat. For nearly a decade, I ran my own personal chef business, developing hundreds of custom recipes and cooking everything from healthy weeknight comfort food to dinner party showstoppers. These days, I channel that same love for food into the written word—crafting articles, features, and editorial content that celebrates culinary culture in all its forms.

Most recently, I served as Associate Editor at Cheese Reporter, where I covered dairy trends, profiled artisan makers, and wrote monthly features. My work is informed by hands-on experience in the kitchen, sharp editorial instincts, and a belief that food stories are ultimately people stories.

I’m currently available for freelance writing, recipe development, and editorial projects—especially those that connect people through food, farming, flavor, and craft.

Let’s work together.
