About

I make the ordinary extraordinary. I practice to deepen my relationship to the land, its cycles, and the keepers of traditions and mysteries. I am mama to two luminous starseeds.

I am my grandmother’s disciple, here to share mastery through devotion. I learned to cook through thousand of hours of careful observation and repetitive tasks. Eventually I would formally learn to bake at The French Pastry School and go to work in many Michelin-starred restaurants, eventually co-opening Oxheart Restaurant (which was featured in The New York Times) and a bar named Public Services. Opening a small 30 seat restaurant, wearing many hats, being able to get to service daily despite countless interruptions and mishaps has gifted me the mastery of navigating a home kitchen with toddlers.

I am obsessed with finding creative ways to share stories. I self-published The Art of Baking: Oxheart and The Lima Year. I share sourdough baking and musings on bread.blog. For Substack writings, subscribe here.
