meet the new Jojotastic team!

So… you might have noticed a few new names on the blog lately. Things have been getting pretty busy around here (yay) and it was definitely time to bring on some help. I wanted to take this time to introduce some of my amazing contributors who’ve been with me for a while, plus my new editorial assistant! I don’t know what I’d do without this incredible team of super talented ladies.

meet the new team Jojotastic — this is @ashrose, keeper of our Portrait of a Cocktail column! jojotastic.comFirst up, meet Ashley Rose Conway — keeper of our Portrait of a Cocktail column and founder of Craft & Cocktail! A cocktail shaker and piñata maker, Ashley is always in the pursuit of having a good time. You’ll most likely find her scouting out the best watering holes and hidden gems, sipping on Tiki drinks and surrounded by a sea of crepe paper. Follow Ashley on Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook!

Meet Alizée Castel — monthly recipe contributor and founder of Bartisserie. Marketing professional by day and passionate baker by night, Alizée Castel, shares her passion for baked goods and drinks in her beautiful blog: bartisserie.com. She gets her inspiration from the different cities she lived in or visited and you’ll probably find her scouting the city for new pastry shops!

And last, but definitely not least… Gwen McKenzie, my amaaaazing editorial assistant (and part-time Noodle wrangler). Gwen is basically my glue, keeping me on task, organized, and focused. I’d be lost without her. Besides helping out with photoshoots, Gwen maintains our monthly DIY column and helps out with tons of other blog columns.
