  • Description

    Hello! I am a native New Yorker and have worked in the arts in NYC for the past 5 years. I am currently taking a career break to focus on my personal passions, which include traveling, cooking, baking, gardening, fitness, animal care, painting and jewelry making. I am a strong advocate for sustainability and organic farming; being in nature revitalizes me! I have traveled to many countries and love to explore new cultures, and am always excited by the opportunity to make a difference in this world by helping others. :)

  • More details about your skills

    I am skilled in working with food, which stemmed from my experiences working with top-of-the-line catering companies for The Metropolitan Museum of Art and Tiffany & Co. I thrive in hospitality settings and love to host and cook; I throw dinner parties for my friends often.
    I am especially excited to cook in farm-to-table settings, and love organic gardening, composting and animal care. I volunteer at the Urban Farm on Governor's Island, ASPCA shelters, and neighborhood gardens around Brooklyn.
    I am a fast learner, great under pressure, very open-minded, and a positive thinker :) I believe team work makes the dream work!
