I’ve modeled & was casted on season 9 of Masterchef on Fox in 2018; took a 7 year hiatus from my 15 year teaching career to pursue a culinary dream where I became a published Food Writer, Recipe Columnist, & Content Creator. I have appeared on many various food cooking shows & created my own YouTube series. I have a Masters Degree in Multilingual /Multicultural Education. I am fluent in Italian & Spanish. I am a former college athlete.
