This led her to clients in the food and beverage industry, including Caraway, McCormick, Doordash, and Good Eggs. She also began writing stories for publications like Edible Brooklyn and Thrillist, and the James Beard Award-nominated food and travel site Gastro Obscura, as well as travel guides for Atlas Obscura.
