I started Ultimate Food Tours in 2019 as a way to show people my favorite activity, eating my way through New York City’s coolest neighborhoods. What started as one Chinatown tour has grown to six New York City Food Tours, Cooking Classes, and tours in Las Vegas and Japan. My favorite part of running Ultimate Food Tours is supporting local businesses and helping local guides from around the world start and grow their own food tour businesses.
My background is in tech and marketing and while I had a great time in the corporate world, I am really enjoying helping people through our offerings.
