I am the founder and CEO of Pluie, the world's first and only self-sanitizing diaper changing table that uses UV-C light to kill 99.9% of germs, including COVID-19. With over 4 years of experience in developing and launching this revolutionary product, I have a mission to make diaper changing in public restrooms safer, cleaner, more comfortable, and more convenient for parents and babies. I have been recognized as one of the Female Founder 100 by Inc. Magazine, Pluie was one of the Best Inventions of 2021 by TIME Magazine, and one of the World Changing Ideas by Fast Company. I also have a passion for creating and delivering innovative and delightful products and content in the culinary and media industry. I have a Master of Culinary Arts from Auguste Escoffier School of Culinary Arts, and I have studied and worked with Michelin-starred chefs. I have written and produced a bestselling cookbook series, appeared and won on The Food Network, and developed new food and beverage products for large CPG brands. As a member of The Female Founder Collective, I am also committed to supporting and empowering other women entrepreneurs who are positively impacting our communities and the planet.
