Writer & Editor

Growing up in the Bay Area set the food bar pretty high, so after moving to New York in 2014, Lizzie couldn’t stop seeking out the best restaurants — as both a diner and a bartender. Between meals, she spent time mixing drinks at The Odeon, Contra, and Temple Bar before diving into the digital media world as an editor at StarChefs. Now with Resy Editorial, she continues to harp about cocktails, her cat Henri, and why teriyaki is not a sauce.
