Named one of the “12 under 35” by the Specialty Food Association in 2022, Gabrielle has built a reputation for blending strategy and creativity across food, CPG, and hospitality industries. In early 2023, she placed in the top 10% of ELVTR’s Creative Advertising course, where her work earned recognition from leading creatives at Leo Burnett. In 2024, she spoke at Whetstone Media’s HONE Narrative Workshop, leading a session on social distribution and content strategy.

Gabrielle’s experience spans almost a decade in digital marketing, with collaborations with the James Beard Foundation, Collective Retreats, and a range of CPG brands including Regalis Foods. As a writer, her voice and work have appeared in award-winning food and beverage publications including Delish, Esquire, Good Housekeeping, and Resy, among others. Read her most recent publication in Business Insider.

She co-founded Queer Food Foundation in 2020, a platform and resource for queer folks in food, and while she is no longer involved, she continues to support. Gabrielle was a featured panelist at Boston University’s Queer Food Conference, where she spoke on Teaching Queer Food Curriculum at a University Level. Later that year, Gabrielle + Co. announced the launch of Pantry Magazine, a queer food journal exploring storytelling through recipes, culture, and community. She was recently selected as a 2025 ASFS/AFHVS conference presenter.
