A Little Bit(e) About Me

Well, it all started a few years ago, when I innocently embarked on a photo story about a local organic farmer— oh yeah, you should probably also know I am a photojournalist by trade— his name was Bill Pennell and there are very few people who can spend time with Bill and not be convinced to go organic. It wasn’t long before I began to question my Manwich and Hamburger Helper cooking style and started opting to cook real food.
