When I’m not writing about food or restaurants I’m probably talking about food or restaurants, or, you know, actually eating food at restaurants. I was never a picky eater, and never had a chance to be: Growing up in the Pacific Northwest, saying ‘no’ to things like geoduck sashimi or fiddlehead fern pesto just wasn’t cool. Instead, I tried everything, and have ever since. I studied journalism at the University of Washington and cooking at Le Cordon Bleu in Paris. I most recently was the restaurant critic and dining editor of Gambit Weekly in New Orleans – another place where people love to eat and drink. When I’m not eating, I’m probably scuba diving and tagging along with spearfishers, hoping they’ll spear some dinner for me. “,”slug”:”helen-freund”,”native_app_rendering”:false,”fuzzy_match”:false,”contributor”:false,”status”:true,”last_updated_date”:”2026-01-28T15:02:24.541Z”,”custom_phone”:”727-893-8310″,”custom_tagline”:”Contact Helen Freund at hfreund@tampabay.com or 727-893-8310.

My Abuelo fled Cuba and arrived in Miami in 1962. He washed dishes in the old Miami Herald cafeteria to support his family, including a baby girl on the way — my mother. Almost half a century later, the Herald gave me my first journalism job as a 17-year-old high school intern. I interned at newspapers all over the country, including at the Tampa Bay Times in 2014. It was the Times that gave me my first job after I graduated from the University of Florida, covering education in Pinellas County from 2015 to 2018. Then I returned to Miami to cover education and the nation’s fourth-largest school district for my hometown paper for three years. Now I’m back at the Times, covering St. Petersburg’s government and people. Miami may be my hometown, but the Sunshine City is my home. I live and breathe local journalism, and I’m proud I’ve spent my career working at Florida’s best newspapers. \n”,”bio”:”Colleen Wright is a reporter covering St. Petersburg.

I come from a military family and am especially interested in issues affecting veterans and service members.\n \nI previously worked as an investigative reporter at the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel and The Capital Times in Madison, covering an array of policy issues including sexual misconduct in the Wisconsin National Guard, environmental issues and veterans affairs. I have also covered the energy industry for the Pittsburgh Tribune Review and local government for the News & Observer in Raleigh, N.C.\nBefore coming to the Tampa Bay Times, I worked as a fourth-grade teacher, teaching reading at a Title I Hillsborough County public school. I now cover the impact of federal policy on the community and am a Report for America corps member. \nI believe the best reporting challenges assumptions and asks uncomfortable questions.
