I have been happily married to Ryan for 26 years, and we have three wonderful children: Rachelle (23), Charles (20), and Kirsten (14). With my Bachelor of Science degree in Accounting, I have been able to manage our bakery business successfully. Baking is a passion of mine, and I have been doing it for as long as I can remember. I learned the art of baking from my mother as well as other influential women in my life. In October 2021, Ryan, Rachelle, and I purchased Pistachio Pie Bakery from its previous owner. Rachelle had been working at the bakery for one and a half years, both during and after completing her pastry diploma from Auguste Escoffier Culinary Institute. Pistachio Pie Bakery specializes in made-from-scratch desserts and breakfast pastries. Our specialties include pies, cheesecakes, croissants, french macarons, bars, cookies, kuchen, lefse, and gluten-free options.
