Experience

Dee has worked as a content writer for over 15 years. She started writing poems and short stories in elementary school and won her first poetry competition when she was 12. As a teenager, she wrote songs with her father, who was in a semi-popular local band. As a freelance writer, she has written pieces for websites around the world. She has been fascinated with vintage recipes since a young age, and has a collection of more than 200 vintage cookbooks. She has since channeled two of her primary passions in life, food and writing, into a career she loves. Her dream is to one day open a combination bakery, bar, and library for other people who want to enjoy three of life's most achievable little luxuries.
