I’m the recipe creator, cook, photographer and writer behind Craving The Yum, and I reside in NYC’s Washington Heights.
I want to show you, step-by-step, how to recreate your favorite desserts. Both traditional and allergy friendly.
My blog reflects my philosophy on desserts, cooking and joy – easy and fun, simple ingredients, and sometimes healthy!
Easy because making desserts and snacks doesn’t have to require hours of labor or expensive ingredients, and fun because we need more fun.
Simple ingredients our brain craves simplicity in a very busy world.
And healthy (not boring) because eating healthy is a good idea. And so is splurging!
My recipes are cost effective and uncomplicated. I create desserts with the intention of igniting your Craving The Yum!
Who am I?
I hold an Associates in Science Degree in psychology and Bachelor of Arts Degree in psychology. As well as an Empowerment Coach certification from Coach Training Alliance.
I was born and raised in upstate NY, and then jetted to NYC as soon as I grabbed that high school diploma to pursue a career as a musical theater artist. Even though I don’t pursue it as a main gig, I still pursue performing opportunities.
