Work with Me

Let’s work together! 

I love partnering with brands that I am passionate about, sharing these collaborations with my readers, and helping brands reach their marketing goals.

I am a professionally trained chef, former marketing and communications manager (for a fine foods distributor), and experienced recipe developer and food photographer. Through my blog, I have had the opportunity to partner with a wide variety of brands, including Bob’s Red Mill, Bella Portofino Tuna, Driscoll’s Berries, The Mango Board, Intel, The Cooking Channel, Sabra, Better Homes & Gardens, Negra Modelo, Magimix, Kettle Chips, Safest Choice Eggs, and more.

My recipes and photographs have been featured on prominent websites, including Buzzfeed, Food52, Tasting Table, Martha Stewart Living, The Kitchn, People.com, Yahoo, and Williams-Sonoma.

In 2014, Better Homes & Gardens named A Beautiful Plate (previously branded under Blogging Over Thyme) as one of the Top 10 Everyday Eats. In 2014, Tasting Table named me as of the Best Food Pinterest Accounts to Follow and in 2015, The Culture Trip named me as one of 11 Pinterest Accounts Every Foodie Should Follow.
