my kitchen is your kitchen
I’m Skyler! Welcome to my Cook Nook!
I’m so glad you’re here! This is the little corner in the internet where I share all of my recipes and love for food.
As a professional chef and new mom (soon to be of two under two!) my goal is to inspire families to romanticize dinner at home again, showing that even in the busiest seasons, food can be both balanced and fun!
I’m a chef, recipe developer, sommelier, and on-air host with a passion for making flavorful, restaurant-quality meals approachable for home cooks. I believe that cooking at home should feel exciting and like a fun task, not overwhelming and like a chore. I love sharing easy, un-intimidating methods that help you create impressive dishes without the stress.
I’m also a new mom (and soon-to-be mom of two under two!), so I fully understand the chaos of family life. My goal is to inspire families to romanticize dinner at home again, showing that even in the busiest seasons, food can be both balanced and fun. Whether you’re looking for an easy weeknight meal, a perfect wine pairing, or just a little kitchen inspiration, I’m here to help make it all feel effortless and enjoyable.
My Background
I trained at the Institute of Culinary Education and earned my Level 3 Sommelier certification from the National Wine School. Before that, I studied journalism at NYU, which has shaped my love for storytelling, producing, and creating engaging content. Over the years, I’ve developed recipes for major brands, hosted pop-up dinners, worked as a private chef, and even ran my own cake ball business, Ballsy Bites (where I personally baked, packed, and delivered my signature rainbow cake balls!).
With over a decade of experience in food media, I’ve hosted live and produced culinary segments for platforms like Food Network, the Today Show, Cooking Channel, Amazon, Meta, and more. My platform goes beyond just recipes—I love engaging with my audience on everything from food to fashion to family life.
At the end of the day, I’m here to make cooking feel approachable, exciting, and totally doable—no matter how hectic life gets. Let’s make delicious memories together!
