About Me
I began EatingOxford.com in November of 2009 when I was unable to find an online resource that provided current menus and news about the restaurants in and around Oxford. I knew I wasn't the only Oxonian searching for this information, so I decided to create the resource that so many were hungry for (pun intended).
While EatingOxford.com is fairly new, I'm not new to the restaurant scene. I'm the editor-in-chief of a national foodservice trade magazine based right here in Oxford (PMQ Pizza Magazine), which takes me around the country on a regular basis to speak with dozens of restaurant owners; I'm neck deep in food-related articles, blogs, press releases and the like on a daily basis; and ask anyone who knows me and they can attest to how much I enjoy dining out.
As for the local scene, I co-authored a bi-weekly restaurant review column for The Local Voice a couple of years back (I was "the meateater" of the duo Two Taste Buds). Many folks still ask about that column, which was popular with restaurant patrons but not always a hit with restaurant owners.
On a broader level, I serve on the Board of Directors for the International Foodservice Editorial Council (IFEC), an association for writers, editors and public relations professionals working in and around the foodservice industry.
Feel free to contact me anytime at foodie@eatingoxford.com or 662-380-6316.
