Pittsburgh makes list after list and it’s awesome to see the city get so much shine. Pittsburgh is affordable, the food scene is enough to make my wallet cry, and for the most part the people are nice. With all great things though does come downfalls. Pittsburgh has some areas it can improve on. Pittsburgh’s…

Thrival Festival Came Alive in Year Number 5
In its past life The Carrie Furnace produced tons of iron per day but last weekend the now defunct historical landmark produced nothing but festival memories. Thrival Festival hosted its annual music festival at a caliber that most festivals take decades to get to. With the Monongahela River and the remaining remnants of The Carrie…
Model Material: Fashion at the Foyer
Without models and fashion designers there would be no fashion shows. Every runway model has a future and every stitch has a past. On July 15th models and designers packed the Carnegie Museum of Art to flaunt everything they had and I was blessed with the opportunity to cover this glamorous Levels Entertainment Event in…
412 Fresh: Alla Famiglia
The only thing that I enjoy more than eating yummy food is taking photos of said food with my Samsung Galaxy S8. There’s even a food mode built into the camera. I of course didn’t use it when capturing these flowers but did use it when I snapped this photo of Alla Famiglia’s tiramisu. Turns…
412 Fresh: 4 Favorite Tacos in the 412
As far as I’m concerned Taco Tuesday is every day in the Burgh. There’s so many taco spots popping up in Pittsburgh that it would be a disservice to your taste buds to only eat tacos on Tuesdays. For research purposes (of course) I’ve checked out quite a few taco spots and some of my…
412 Fresh: Pizza Fest is Coming

Dancing with Strangers: Thrival Fest 2016
The Chainsmokers are everywhere and September of 2016 they were here in Pittsburgh rocking Thrival Festival at Swissvale’s (how it’s under the Rankin Bridge & in Swissvale I’ll never understand) Carrie Furnace. It’s such a beautiful venue and is the perfect mix of industrial and serene. Every spot is a good spot when it…
Happy Mon(Daè) 013
To say I’ve been embracing my inner free spirit would be the understatement of the century as I’ve always been one to follow wherever my soul takes me. My mom is super encouraging as she’s always telling me that the worst thing that can happen is you get a no and as Jojo says best, I’ve heard…
The S8 Experience
At first glance the Samsung Galaxy S8 looks and feels exactly like the S7 (without the buttons). It’s been a few weeks since I used my Jump! Plan at T-mobile and traded up and I must say I’m impressed. Samsung has outdone themselves with this one! Sure, not having buttons took some time getting used to…

During Restaurant Week you can discover or revisit your favorite Pittsburgh Restaurants and get great deals on yummy dishes. From January 9 until…
