Elaine Low is a Los Angeles-based writer and sometimes food blogger with a weakness for cheese.

Currently, she writes copy for LivingSocial, whipping up belated birthday excuses, literary theories in the form of truffles, and a dreamy vacation or two for LivingSocial Escapes.

The former managing editor of Mochi magazine, Elaine has also contributed to Audrey, Hyphen, and CollegeCandy. She graduated from college summa cum laude with a degree in journalism, and spent a year as a fellow at the Japanese American Citizens League, a civil rights group, working with the anti-hate crime and youth programs. 

Reenacting internet memes in real life is one of her favorite hobbies.

She also really likes mail and tweets:

UPDATE: 
Elaine’s Mochi magazine article, “Diagnosing the Asian American Eating Disorder,” was recently re-published in the 2012 edition of “Eating Disorders (Opposing Viewpoints)”, a Cengage textbook.
