Hello! My Name is Carly and I love everything about food. I enjoy learning more about savory cooking, trying new dishes or treat recipes, and discovering a new restaurant or bakery with delicious items that expand my food experiences.

Above all, I am truly passionate about food because it combines my love of art, science, and – most importantly – bringing people together.
