My favorite food to go out for is sushi but I love to stay in for tacos or anything baked brie!

I've lost 115 lbs over the last 3.5 years. Ask me about how I use intuitive eating to help me reach my goals!

Beach > Mountains. Just gonna leave that there.
Truth or Dare?
I have always loved food and cooking but I wasn't able to make it my career until 2020 when I discovered how social media was a way for home cooks to share their love for food art with people around the world and likely make a living doing it! Why not dabble a bit?
While I love to serve my family and friends, sharing pretty pictures with Instagram seemed like a unique way to reach larger groups of people than I would have in person and a fun way to meet new friends and share what I was learning about charcuterie board building along the way.
What I found on social media was an incredibly supportive, loving, and FUN group of foodie peeps who loved doing exactly what I do! They were my encouragement during the pandemic and brought me so much joy seeing everyone create whatever their heart set them out to create that day.
The past few years of Platter Girl have been off the charts amazing and a true blessing! I love how each charcuterista has their own style that truly shows in their boards and have the drive just like me to be better with every board that comes across their table.
I hope you will find inspiration, something NEW + interesting, and something you want to share with YOUR PEOPLE here at Platter Girl!
Thank you for being here and for being such a huge part of my story!
XOXO,
