I am based in San Francisco, where I am actively involved with the California Artisan Cheese Guild and my blog, Miss Cheesemonger. I began my cheese blog in September 2009, when I started working in a Southern California cheese shop as a cheesemonger. That gig lasted one glorious year, but the blog continues at www.misscheesemonger.com. I am in the process of switching careers to work full time in cheese and specialty foods, ideally in import/export work!

If you are social media-inclined, I'm on Twitter at @msscheesemonger and on the Facebook page Miss Cheesemonger.
