Bio

After living in Manhattan in a closet-sized, pigeon infested, shoebox-esque apartment for the past year,  I had an epiphany that I had to act on immediately; I belong in Brooklyn. As soon as my seemingly endless lease expired, I fled over the bridge to Brooklyn Heights. Here, I share with you my experience leaving the Manhattan life and becoming Brooklyn.

I cover all things food, fashion, events, shopping, and the every day Brooklyn scene. 

My Work
I'm a social media extraordinaire, community manager, writer, and foodie.
