Who we are

I have loved food for as long as I can remember. I started watching the Food Network at age eight, received a Kitchen Aid mixer for Christmas when I was ten, ran a full-fledged cupcake business when I was twelve, and took classes at Johnson and Wales when I was thirteen. Once I was accepted to NYU’s Gallatin School of Individualized Study, I knew that I wanted to develop my major in a way that would allow me to turn my passion into my career. Studying digital media and food studies has grown my love and interest in food even more. MoodFood pays homage to my life motto that food is essential to bettering anyones mood. Food comforts, unites, educates, and breaks down barriers unlike any other object. I am a strong believer that what we eat is crucial to our identities. Sharing the comfort food and cooking provides is an essential function of human relationships that I hope MoodFood can enhance and inhibit!

Happy Eating!,
