Her father, a simple grocer, taught her that great meals begin with shopping . The quality of the ingredients used when preparing a meal is more important than the recipe. After the death of her parents, she inherited co-ownership in the business her father founded. Her years in the grocery and deli business taught her the ins and outs, dos and don’ts of supermarket shopping and gave her invaluable insight into the culinary preferences of the average American and expertise in the preparation of these dishes. She is the author of award-winning cookbook, Secret Recipes from the Corner Market, and Amazon international best-selling Grocery Shopping Secrets, a guide that leverages her industry-insider knowledge to help families combat rising costs, decreasing quality, and shrinking package size.
