‘Nutshell’ Bio
Born in the Middle East (Israel), grew up in the Midwest (Detroit), and currently living in the South (Atlanta), I have become skilled at pivoting and adapting to diverse living and working environments. My interests include a passion for writing and food, a love of humanity, and a consistent craving to mess around in the kitchen producing healthy comfort foods for my friends, family, neighbors, and random strangers.
