Biography
I am a bilingual, Latinx New York City-based food writer, restaurant critic, cook, and recipe developer for publications like the Michelin Guide, Zagat, Infatuation, Wine Enthusiast, VinePair, Thrillist, PureWow and more. I am the creator of the guide's popular column Eating Off Duty: What celebrated chefs eat outside their kitchens. I've been featured on NYT Cooking and do recipe development/digital videos for The Spruce Eats, The Kitchn, Food52, Delish, Buzzfeed Tasty, Tastemade and more. I am a member of the National Association of Hispanic Journalists, the Newswomen's Press Club of New York, and the International Association of Culinary Professionals. Expertise My specialties are traditional to modern Latin-ish foods with fun riffs (I am originally from Panama and part Cuban), Japanese food (I lived in Japan for 4 years), Hawaiian food (I lived in Hawaii for 3 years), Spanish cuisine (I lived in Madrid), and wine (I write for top wine publications and studied wine tasting. I love fun wine pairings). My range within the food industry is deep: I cover fine dining, the technical side of cooking, dive deep into cultural context and have interviewed politicians, celebrity chefs, non-food celebrities to undocumented workers. When I’m not writing about food, I write for beauty, health, and wellness publications like Well + Good, PureWow, and mindbodygreen. I also co-author and ghostwrite cookbooks with celebrity chefs and have a treatment for my own cookbook currently in development. On-Camera In front of the camera: I'm also the host of United States of Spirits on Spirits Network and Driven to Dine on MSG Networks. Catch me on Food & Wine's newest show Beat the Receipt! I am the host of HelloFresh's latest mini-digital series Fresh Takes on Takeout. I've been featured on NY1, ABC10, InsideHook, NYT Cooking and more. Borrowed Time is my debut documentary as host and co-producer, currently in post-edit. It focuses on the effects of Covid-19 on the restaurant industry.
