Luisa went to college at Tufts University, graduating with a double major in English and French Literature. While spending time in Berlin, Luisa became a full-time writer, publishing My Berlin Kitchen in the fall of 2012. In the book, she wrote about her childhood in Berlin, the homesickness she battled through cooking, trying to find her way as an adult and how she finally came full circle by moving back home and falling in love with the man she would go on to marry.
