Your Teacher

I grew up obsessed with all sorts of bakeries and fantasized about going to culinary school. I ended up instead going to law school! Seventeen years after graduating, I enrolled as a part-time student in culinary school for pastry arts. I currently have my own law firm in New York City and a baking blog on the side. The best of both worlds!

My background & experience

I am a trained pastry chef, having graduated from the International Culinary Center in New York City (now part of the Institute for Culinary Education). I since started a baking blog, www.cinnamonshtick.com, where I share recipes and baking tricks. I am excited to be able to share even more through interactive classes here. You can also find me on Instagram @cinnamonshtick.

My classes and teaching style

I teach all kinds of desserts, breads, ice cream and other treats. Although I have some recipes that are catered towards dietary restrictions, for the most part I am all about butter, eggs and sugar.
