Credibility-Focused: 10 Years as a Professional Recipe Developer

I began my culinary career as an intern in the Food Network Kitchen and went on to spend the next ten years as a full-time recipe developer. I collaborated closely with editors, producers, and culinary teams to develop, test, and refine hundreds of recipes across digital platforms, magazines, cookbooks, and social media.

My work, some of which you can view below, can be found on FoodNetwork.com, in Food Network Magazine, Good Housekeeping Magazine, Woman’s Day Magazine, Food52, The Pioneer Woman Magazine, Girl Meets Farm, The Magnolia Network, and more.

From weeknight family dinners to special-occasion dishes, every recipe was created with a focus on approachability, flavor, and reliability. This decade-long experience in one of the most respected test kitchens in the country shaped the way I cook today — with precision, creativity, and an understanding of what home cooks truly need. It’s the foundation I now bring to every personalized menu and meal I create for my private chef clients.
