Experience
Gabrielle Pharms is an award-winning journalist and author. Her work has appeared in publications including Food & Wine, Eater, Travel + Leisure, Rolling Stone, Harper's BAZAAR, Whisky Magazine, Men's Journal, and ADWEEK, among many others. Her drinks journalism has included reporting on spirits, cocktails, industry trends, and the people shaping contemporary drinking culture. Beyond journalism, Gabrielle has spent more than a decade working in brand storytelling and copywriting, giving her an additional perspective on how food, beverage, and consumer brands communicate with the people who buy them. Today, she brings that combination of reporting, cultural analysis, and consumer insight to her work for Static Media's Mashed, approaching food news not simply as what's new, but as a window into changing tastes, habits, and culture.
Mashed’s industry-leading coverage is created by qualified and experienced writers, and is reviewed and fact-checked by our editorial team to ensure everything is accurate and timely. Outside experts are also consulted to help deliver factual, up-to-date information.
Our mission is to inform and engage our readers, telling them things they need to know, things they want to know, and things they didn't know they wanted to know about food. We strive to always provide a well-rounded reading experience, whether that’s the news of the day or a new original recipe you can try making at home. In an effort to provide the most comprehensive, current, and accurate content, our editorial team constantly reviews and updates articles as necessary.
