Hi, I’m Jackie.
freelance writer and editor . food and lifestyle . Boston
I’m a journalist on the Boston dining beat (and beyond). I love telling stories about people, products, plates, and projects with a sense of place.
In 2024, I was the editor of Time Out Boston. From 2021 through 2023, I was the site editor of The Food Lens, overseeing all content in conjunction with the publisher. I also edited dozens of restaurant recipes to produce two TFL-exclusive cookbooks for home cooks. Previously, I was deputy food editor at Boston magazine, associate editor at Eater Boston, a taproom bartender, restaurant manager, and a reporter and producer for the Milton Independent in Vermont.
As a freelancer, I am a regular contributor to Edible Boston among many other publications. I also contribute copywriting and communications in line with the goals and style of other brands. Let’s talk about ways we can work together — and know I’m always here with restaurant recommendations.
