Today’s post is a little bit different, and that’s because it’s an inside look at all the lovely people that help run Food Blogger Pro each and every day!
Chances are you might have interacted with some (or all!) of us somewhere or another on Food Blogger Pro, but we wanted to officially introduce ourselves in this post.
All of us that you see here are part of Team Food Blogger Pro, but we’re also part of TinyBit, the parent company in our family of businesses. Every member of our team helps keep Food Blogger Pro running smoothly, and we’re so grateful for every single one of them. 😊
Let’s jump into the introductions, shall we?
Bjork
What do you do at Food Blogger Pro? My main focus at FBP is the podcast, Live Q&As, and occasionally some courses.
Where do you live? Twin Cities!
What’s your emoji aesthetic (five most recently used emojis, not including faces)? 👍🌽🐭❤️👋
What’s one thing that makes you excited? A good book and a good cup of coffee. 📚☕️
If you had to eat one meal every day for the rest of your life, what would it be? Every day? I’d have to say…a cheeseburger? Then again, that might get old after a few days.
What does your ideal weekend look like? Time with family and friends! And a football game if it’s fall!
What’s your favorite part about working at Food Blogger Pro? Seeing someone apply a new concept or idea they’ve learned and unlocking a new level of success because of it!
Alexa
What do you do at Food Blogger Pro? I’m General Manager, so I oversee the day-to-day here at Food Blogger Pro. I like thinking of new ways we can better serve our members and help them reach their blogging and business goals. 😊
Where do you live? Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania! The City of Champions, the Steel City, and one of the least sunny cities in America.
What’s your emoji aesthetic (five most recently used emojis, not including faces)? 🫶❤️🐙✨🍪
What’s one thing that makes you excited? My cat, Maya, always always always makes me excited. She’s sassy and hyper and my very favorite thing!
If you had to eat one meal every day for the rest of your life, what would it be? The Creamy Cashew Mac and Cheese recipe from America’s Test Kitchen’s cookbook, Vegan for Everybody, would probably be my vote right now. Now that the weather is getting a little more fall-y, creamy comfort food is all I’m thinking about!
What does your ideal weekend look like? Lots of reading, a brewery or two, and maybe a fun dinner at a fun restaurant! And lots of coffee from my favorite place in Pittsburgh, La Prima.
What’s your favorite part about working at Food Blogger Pro? Two big things stick out to me:
- I love my coworkers. I feel lucky every day to have such a kind, smart, and fun group to work with!
- I am constantly inspired by our members and their dedication to working hard so they can do what they love to do. Plus, I’ve had the pleasure to meet so many of them in-person (see the photos 😊), and everyone has been so kind and thoughtful!
Emily
What do you do at Food Blogger Pro? I am the Content Specialist at Food Blogger Pro! I write blog posts, manage our social media accounts, develop new courses and course updates, and help out with the podcast!
Where do you live? I live in Decatur, Georgia, a neighborhood in Atlanta.
What’s your emoji aesthetic (five most recently used emojis, not including faces)? 🤷♀️☕️🍻🎉🙌
What’s one thing that makes you excited? Maybe it is because I’m writing this in mid-September, but I get *really* excited for fall every year. I love the changing weather, the upcoming holidays, football, seasonal recipes, and the cozy vibes.
If you had to eat one meal every day for the rest of your life, what would it be? A large mug of black coffee, a giant croissant from my favorite bakery, and a handful of ripe berries.
What does your ideal weekend look like? My ideal weekend would include an outing to a brewery with my husband and 2-year-old son, a relaxing afternoon reading a good book and baking a cake, a long walk, dinner with friends, breakfast from a bakery, and a morning with my family at the beach (clearly not realistic in Atlanta, but you said ideal!).
What’s your favorite part about working at Food Blogger Pro? I love my team! Even though we work remotely, I feel so connected to, and supported by, my fellow FBPers – they’re the best!
Natalie
What do you do at Food Blogger Pro? I’m a Content Creator and Editor, so I assist with developing, editing, and updating course and blog content.
Where do you live? I spend most of my time in Southern Florida and a few months in California (as you can see I’m chasing that sun!).
What’s your emoji aesthetic (five most recently used emojis, not including faces)? 🐻🌱🍌🩷👌
What’s one thing that makes you excited? Seasonal food – I am a huge fan of the changing flavors! Plus, I love anything festive and get way too excited about baking/cooking holiday-related food.
If you had to eat one meal every day for the rest of your life, what would it be? Oof, that’s a hard one! I’m a huge garlic fan so probably Spaghetti Agilo e Olio with a side of sourdough bread.
What does your ideal weekend look like? On a sunny day my ideal weekend includes a morning hike followed by brunch and a whole lot of relaxation. And on a rainy weekend you’ll find me under a blanket with a cup of coffee and a good book (or tv show).
What’s your favorite part about working at Food Blogger Pro? Working with not only a team, but also a whole community, that is as passionate about food and blogging as me is incredible!
Jasmine
What do you do at Food Blogger Pro? Graphic design! I design web pages for the site, UI design for our membership community pages, and various graphics for the blog and special projects.
Where do you live? Vancouver, Canada
What’s your emoji aesthetic (five most recently used emojis, not including faces)? ❤️👍🏾🎉💯🍾
What’s one thing that makes you excited? The thing that makes me most excited is “flavor.” I studied wine and artisan chocolate because I am fascinated with the different flavors that can be perceived in both products. It’s always a little magical when you try a new flavor and it sparks a memory or new sensation. When I travel, I always want to try the local fruits and vegetables because food usually tastes best close to where it was grown. One of the best things I’ve ever eaten is fresh cacao fruit, which is the white fruit inside a cacao pod. Chocolate is made from the seeds, but the fruit is nearly impossible to get in Canada.
If you had to eat one meal every day for the rest of your life, what would it be? This is the hardest question. I guess I would choose a Vietnamese Vermicelli Bowl with lemongrass chicken and a side of fried spring rolls. It ticks all the boxes for me a little sweet, a little salty, fresh raw veggies, and something deep fried!
What does your ideal weekend look like? My ideal weekend involves a baking or ice cream-making project. I like to go through all my cookbooks and find something challenging, shop for the special ingredients, and then spend an afternoon in the kitchen. Then, I share the results with friends and family. The best reward is seeing them enjoy something I’ve made.
What’s your favorite part about working at Food Blogger Pro? My favorite thing about working at Food Blogger Pro is the team culture. I’ve worked on many teams in my life, but FBP is by far the best. Not only is everyone amazing at their jobs, but they are also all kind, respectful, fun, and compassionate.
Mary
What do you do at Food Blogger Pro? I hang out in Intercom and assist members with questions and troubleshooting.
Where do you live? The Mitten State – Michigan!
What’s your emoji aesthetic (five most recently used emojis, not including faces)? ❤️👍🎉💯☀️
What’s one thing that makes you excited? Sunny days that aren’t too hot or cold – perfect for long walks with a podcast or audiobook!
If you had to eat one meal every day for the rest of your life, what would it be? Ooof, that’s a hard question! I would say a bowl o’ food type meal – a protein, carb, fresh and cooked veggies, something crunchy, and a sauce. It’s my favorite thing to make and I never get tired of them.
What does your ideal weekend look like? Enough sleep (we have a young daughter and a puppy 😅), watching Liverpool FC with my husband, reading time with hot cups of tea, visiting a friend or two, eating dinner outside on our deck, and soaking up some sunny weather and family time.
What’s your favorite part about working at Food Blogger Pro? The team and FBP members really live out our value that everyone has unsurpassable worth. There’s so much care and thought that goes into everything we do, and I also see this reflected in member interactions in the forum and Intercom. It’s a wonderful thing to be part of!
And that’s our team! We hope you enjoyed getting to learn a little bit more about the people who help keep Food Blogger Pro running each and every day.
Now let us know in the comments: If you had to eat one meal every day for the rest of your life, what would it be? (This was by far the hardest question for all of us, so we’d love to know your answer.)
The one meal I would eat every day is Fried Catfish (whole) and dried big Lima beans.
Yum, Deborah! I don’t think I’ve ever tried fried catfish before, but it sounds delicious.
Great to meet the FBP team! Your passion for food blogging and commitment to helping others succeed in the industry is truly inspiring. Looking forward to learning and growing with you all!
Thanks so much! Happy to have you here.
