Experience
KJ has been a freelance writer and editor for over 25 years. Over that time, she's teamed with international food and nutrition clients, worked on the blog for The GFB, written quirky packaging copy for many flavors of Joe Coffee, and even written a play to teach kids about eating breakfast.
As an adventurous cook, she's always looking for ways to fit one more flavor into her spice cabinet, proving that vegetarian cooking can be exciting and nutritious. KJ mastered pie-making at her grandmother's side and is still perfecting her techniques for Dutch oven bread. She's also raised a kid with food allergies and is interested in ways to alter recipes around those needs.

KJ majored in English and French at Michigan State University.
