Welcome.

I’m a native Southern Californian who makes her home in Switzerland.

I write about my life and the things that interest me; food, travel, friendships and the complexities of human relationships.

Madame LeGrand’s Oyster Bar

Would you pack up your life and start over halfway across the world?

When her grandmother dies, Jane is given the opportunity to start over in a village in Brittany, on the west coast of France. But that would mean leaving everything and everyone and taking a chance on something new…

Madame LeGrand’s Oyster Bar is about the choices we face in our lives, about being brave, and the friends that hold our hands through it all.

Coming in early 2025
