| Headline: | Founder & CEO of new media company |
| Description: | The Gilded Fork, LLC is a new media company celebrating the sensual pleasures of food and wine. At present, our company comprises an online magazine, <a href="www.gildedfork.com">The Gilded Fork</a>, the <a href="www.culinarypodcastnetwork.com">Culinary Podcast Network</a> -- the world`s first all-food podcast channel, and our <a href="https://shop.gildedfork.com">Gilded Fork online boutique</a>. We are now branching into offline events including cooking classes and tasting dinners, and my podcast, Food Philosophy, has just become part of the <a href="foodphilosophy.podshow.com">PodShow</a> family. This project started with me, a laptop and a tray table, and within six months our web site was nominated for a World Food Media award along with the BBC and Jacques Pepin, and I appeared in a national television ad campaign for Go Daddy. Now I have a wonderful business partner, Mark Tafoya, a gaggle of contributors and kitchen elves, and we are having the time of our lives! I`ve been an entrepreneur all of my life, and there is nothing that matches the exhilaration of bringing a vision to fruition. Ours is nothing less than to change the face of food media. I`d love to hear from those of you who are blazing your own trails! |
