ABOUT ME

I'm a vegetarian and I move a lot.

The most exciting move is tied between 9 moves in a year and being deported from Iceland in 2008 (long story and also NOT my fault). Before that I lived in San Francisco.

I love to write, cook and play with pastry. I used to be a massage therapist, but now I am a pastry chef! I believe ice cream is never out of season. One of my favorite flavors is brown butter.

Anything else you might want to know, you can just ask me.

PHILOSOPHY

Let them eat cake.
