In 2006, she began working in Maryland as the Education Director and Foodways Consultant at the 1801 Riversdale House Museum, and she served as the consultant for the restoration of the 18th-century kitchen at Annapolis’ William Paca House. She has appeared on numerous TV shows on CBS, MPT, and PBS, and is the author of Cooking Maryland’s Way: Voices of a Diverse Cuisine.
