Danielle Feinberg

Danielle Feinberg grew up in Southern California but has often been mistaken for a "true New Yorker." She has a BA, an MA, and Grande Diploma of Pastry Arts -- none of which has anything to do with her current regular employment. She puts salt on her cookies before baking, and could probably eat pizza seven days a week. Danielle lives in NYC with her husband, two sons, and dog.
