About me

Passion, Creativity & Food

You know the old saying, “Necessity is the mother of invention”?  Rose had a mother who loved to bake—but not cook.  So Rose and her 5 siblings took up the slack.  And they became pretty darn good at it.  Fast forward to her college years:  Rose earned her BA in Theatre at Southern Illinois University/Carbondale. And her MFA in Theatre Design/Costume at the U. of Michigan.  Hey. We know what you’re thinking:  What does theatre have to do with food?  Well, look at it this way:  

Creativity. Art. Design. Showmanship. Presentation.  Production. Communication. Coordination. Collaboration.  All talents and skills that transfer to food styling.  Which is why Rose is comfortable wherever she cooks.  A photographer’s studio.  A TV set.  Or in live cooking demonstrations.  It’s Food as Art and Art as Food.  And it’s Rose as Impresario—all the way.
