Author Bio
Homegrown, hungry, and always exploring
I’m a homegrown Charleston local who loves chasing great meals, testing recipes that actually work, and keeping life balanced with fitness. Charleston Treasures is where I share what I’m eating, what I’m cooking at home, and the spots I recommend when friends ask, “Where should we go?”
You’ll see plenty of restaurant notes (including what to order), simple Lowcountry-inspired recipes, and the occasional book pick that pairs well with a quiet morning coffee. A side note, my favorite coffee shop is Sweet Palm Coffee. If you’re building a weekend plan or just looking for your next favorite bite, you’re in the right place.
