Justin Smulski

Justin is a writer and photographer based in coastal Maine.  He grew up in New Hampshire, went to college at GWU in Washington, DC, and trained as a chef at Le Cordon Bleu in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Justin has years of experience in professional kitchens, gourmet food sales, and as a wine buyer. He also co-founded Rosehips & Charcoal, a boutique social media consultancy that helps northeast getaway rentals tell their unique stories and grow their online presence.  When he’s not working, hiking, or snapping pictures, you can most likely find him drinking wine in the woods in questionable footwear.
