Interview
How is social media changing news?
Social media has sped up the news cycle and blurred the line between journalist and audience. It’s powerful for amplifying voices and breaking stories fast—but it also means we have to be more careful than ever about accuracy, context, and who we’re trusting.
What's your favorite social network?
Instagram’s my go-to—it’s visual & perfect for sharing stories & recipes in the moment. But honestly, nothing beats the deeper connection I get through my blog and newsletter.
Who do you wish followed you?
I’d be thrilled if someone like Ina Garten or Yotam Ottolenghi followed me—icons who have shaped the way we think about food with warmth, creativity, and depth. But beyond celebrity chefs, I secretly hope that home cooks—the kind who dog-ear recipe pages and tweak spices by instinct—feel seen and inspired by what I share. Those are the followers I treasure most, and the ones I’m always writing for.
What advice can you offer to aspiring journalists?
Stay curious, read constantly, and write as much as you can. Don’t wait for permission—start telling stories now, whether it’s on a blog, a newsletter, or just in your journal. Your voice gets stronger the more you use it.
What's your favorite drink?
Currently, a cup of flat white
