TL;DR
Name: Kristin
Location: Silicon Valley, Sonoma, Minneapolis
First Love: Pizza
Hobbies: Sharing restaurant favs + travel tips

I love trying new restaurants, photographing my favorite meals, and sharing candid thoughts with fellow food lovers on the interwebs.
My 9 to 5? I work as a content strategist where I get to geek out about cool tech.
Bonus: it funds my expensive sushi outings and grocery hauls.
On the weekends you can often find me retreating to Sonoma. In 2016, my sister Kendra and I bought a little house and have slowly but surely been making it our relaxing haven.
About Me
@BayAreaEats began in 2012 as an Instagram account to chronicle the restaurants I went to around The San Francisco Bay Area.
As a busy college student-athlete, I had a big appetite, curiosity to try something new, and an unwillingness to learn how to cook for myself—the perfect recipe to eat out all the time.
I encouraged others to share what they were eating using #BayAreaEats. Now, over 400K drool-worthy photos have been posted to the hashtag.
The photos + stories shared continue to inspire me to try different cuisines, restaurants, and recipes*. I hope the same is true for you.
* Yes, I learned how to cook for myself
