About Me

I’m 31 years old and live in the gloriously wet city of Portland, Oregon. I chose the name Epicurious Vegan because I have an innate curiosity about the world and live to indulge and celebrate the small and wonderful things this life and this city has to offer. And because as a vegan, I do it all as ethically and compassionately as I can.

I have quite possibly the best family in the world and the most incredible friends.  I love photobooths, chapstick, dresses, compassion, champagne cocktails, discovering new restaurants and bars, writing, biking, cooking, learning, vegetables, books, crunching leaves, quiet days, bustling days, cloudy weather, sunshine and smiling.

When I’m not staying busy as a manager at a bustling brewpub, I’m working on my blog or on my other project:  I’m a founder and director of Vida Vegan Con, the world’s first international vegan blogging conference.

On Epicurious Vegan, you’ll find:

  • Recipes
  • Adventures!
  • Stories
  • Restaurant reviews
  • Music, books and movies I enjoy and I hope you’ll enjoy too
  • Upcoming events
  • Photo Essays
  • Travel posts
  • Tips for shopping, cooking, traveling and living

I want to live my life as cruelty-free and compassionate as possible. Being a vegan is, to me, a great start on that path.

    Your story is truly inspiring. We thought you might be interested in the new book by noted Catskill Animal Sanctuary (http://casanctuary.org) Director Kathy Stevens. Picking up where she left off in her first acclaimed book, Where the Blind Horse Sings, Kathy Stevens inspires us in her second book Animal Camp (http://animalcampbook.com) with life-altering lessons shared by the animals in her charge and a plea to see them for “who,” not “what,” they are.

    Please share the press release, images, video, and social media ready status messages at http://go.markandphil.com/animalcamp. Interviews, galleys, and private tours of Catskill Animal Sanctuary with the author are all available upon request.

    All the best,
    Sabrina
