I grew up on the Jersey Shore and became a Brooklynite via Boston, where I learned about chowder, and realized I do indeed love the Philadelphia Eagles more than the New England Patriots. I've written about food, technology, politics, and the environment across the Web, for sites including AOL, CNNMoney.com, and FOXNews.com.
I've got two wonderful nieces and two snuggly cats and spend my spare time reading, sailing, learning languages, and watching anything on TLC. Dream destination: Australia.
