I have been baking professionally for a decade, since my first-ever job at a farm-driven bakery in my hometown of St. Louis, Missouri.

Upon moving to Boulder, I worked on the pastry team at Frasca Food & Wine. I moved on to run the pastry program at Boxcar Coffee for several years. You can find me making desserts & more with Meadow Lark Farm Dinners across various farms in Boulder County throughout the summers, and creating custom dessert tables and menus for private events across the Front Range.

My approach to baking has a heavy emphasis on the seasons, whole grains, fresh or preserved fruits & herbs, and thoughtful sourcing. I decorate with dramatic swooshes of buttercream, seasonal fruit, and fresh flowers. Check out my gallery for some examples.

I proudly partner with Boulder County farmers & millers to make my cakes special. Your cake is likely to include seasonal fresh flowers from Artemis Flower Farm, freshly milled flour from Moxie, and seasonal fruit from Fruit Fruits Organic or Speedwell Farm & Garden, to name a few! As much as I can, I source ingredients seasonally and locally through Boulder’s amazing farm stands and markets, or from my own garden.
