I am a chef and a journalist. My favorite color is pink. Mixing up food, fun, friends and music in the kitchen is my passion. I graduated from the University of Florida with a communications degree and a pre-med concentration. And I packed my bags and worked at CNN. Being a producer was exciting but I decided to hit the ovens and produce pastries at L’Academie de Cuisine culinary school in Washington DC. I graduated with honors and a Pastry Arts degree and worked for some of the top White House chefs.

Then I went back to CNN and produced the “Dr. Sanjay Gupta Primetime” documentaries and baked a lot of treats for my colleagues. And then back to DC where I married my digital media production and culinary skills at Porter Novelli as Vice President of social media. I loved working as an on-camera chef for shows on WE, CNN, HGTV, and most recently on iTunes, as a guest for the number one rated moms’ podcast, Mommycast.com. Now its time for my own show! Thanks for visiting me in the digital kitchen called PinkMixer. Love, Chef Ruff
