I’m a writer and producer specializing in immigrant food cultures. Since earning a PhD in Jewish food history from NYU, I’ve helped create a variety of projects spanning books, film, digital media and live programming. My work has also appeared in the New York Times, Saveur magazine, the Globe & Mail and other outlets.

I am Co-Curator of the exhibition “I’ll Have What She’s Having: the Jewish Deli,” which originated at the Skirball Cultural Center in Los Angeles and is currently touring museums across the country. For several years I worked for Google, implementing culinary data on Southern California restaurants for the Maps app. I was Consulting Producer on the 2016 Sundance/IFC documentary feature, “City of Gold,” about the Pulitzer Prize-winning food writer Jonathan Gold, and I was an Editor for Alice Waters’ book Truth, Love & Clean Cutlery (2018).
