I have worked for Meyer Corporation for 6 months. As a recent college graduate in my mid 20’s, I am living away from home for the first time. In addition to the start of a new career, I am also a very active athlete, participating competitively in cycling and triathlon events. With so much going on in my life, I find that I fall into multiple Cooking Personalities. Overall, I find that my core personality is Healthy Habits. As a very active endurance athlete, I need to cook foods that not only taste great, but are healthy and provide all of the nutrients I need to perform well and recover.

My other cooking personalities include Expanding Horizons and Gourmand. Living on my own for the first time, I am working slowly to build my own cookware and bakeware assortments. I am very picky when it comes to cooking and baking, preferring only to use the best, which can be an expensive habit, and I am therefore, building my assortments one or two pieces at a time.

My significant other and I love to cook and bake. We experiment all of the time, often cooking/baking a recipe to spec. once, and then never cooking it the same again – varying it to add in foods and flavors we think will work well or just experimenting with foods we have never tried before. With there being only two of us in my household, we cook large meals, and do all of our baking on the weekends, and then use the leftovers for lunch, dinner and dessert during the week. Cooking, baking and eating (the food we make) is a large part of our relationship.  It is important to us that we make healthy food, and we try to make it as fun, interesting, and of course, great tasting as it can be!

I am a wife, mother, and employee of Meyer Corporation; serving as the Sr. Sales Director for the Anolon, Circulon, and BonJour brands. I’ve worked for Meyer for over five years. I am also a certified Home Economist with an emphasis on Foods and Nutrition. I have a passion for cooking and seeing people enjoy good food -- it feeds my passion for selling our products.

Nothing pleases me more than to have family and friends gathered in the kitchen, all the burners going, and everyone working toward a common goal– it’s like a symphony. As a working mom, I rely on tried and true recipes for most of our meals, but I also enjoy experimenting and trying new techniques.

When I’m not working or in the kitchen, I relax by walking, reading, and gardening. I travel extensively for my job and I’ve had the privilege to visit many of our customers, both large and small, in some wonderful cities around the country.
