Over the course of her career, Rebecca has developed thousands of recipes, styled and directed major food photoshoots, and created culinary content for some of the most recognized brands and personalities in the food industry.

 

Rebecca began her career at Hoffman Media, where she served as Test Kitchen Director, Executive Chef, and ultimately Executive Chef & Food Editor. There she created original content for multiple national magazines and produced large-scale cooking demonstrations—including collaborations with Paula Deen, Sandra Lee, and other celebrity talent.

 

Rebecca later joined eMeals, America’s leading curated meal-planning platform, where she now serves as Director of Culinary Development. She oversees the eMeals Test Kitchen, leads culinary strategy, manages food stylists and photographers, and develops signature content for more than 15 meal styles.

From chef-crafted catering and custom charcuterie boards to recipe development and culinary content creation, every dish reflects Rebecca’s creativity, precision, and signature belief that food should always be beautiful, memorable, and impeccably dressed.
