Biography

My passion for travel & food prompted me to launch TableTalk, a Travel/Culinary publication from Savannah, GA to St. Augustine, FL. My adventures took me to barrier islands, celebrity chef’s tables, world-class resorts and legendary restaurants. I enjoy writing about travel, food, chefs, themed parties, coastal adventures and intriguing people. I've been writing since the early 1980's when I was Party Director at New York's Trump Tower, launching me into writing about themed parties/food. As one of the early founding members of the Roundtable for Women in Foodservice in NYC, I've launched an organization in the NE Florida area: Women's Food Society. Thanks to NATJA, I was inspired to nurture my travel writing and have my first two Arizona stories on 5 travel sites and in 2 newspapers!
