She spent five years in New York, where for two years she worked and learned the life of high finance at the iconic 2 World Trade Center. She moved west to earn an MBA from Pepperdine University in Malibu, CA and fell in love with the weather and a boy! She and her husband Jason share a passion for good food and travel. Everywhere they go, they take pictures of food; they love cooking at home and on trips, and love sampling local fares. Jason is a scientist and brings his analytical yet artistic mind to the foods he creates and is the chef behind BBQ Theory.
