Jan transitioned to an editorial role in 2000 and is currently the Executive Editor for Better Homes and Gardens Special Interest Media, Food. Jan’s edit team creates food content for Better Homes and Gardens monthly magazine, publishes more than 30 newsstand publications annually and all of the Better Homes and Gardens cookbooks including The Better Homes and Gardens New Cook Book and The Better Homes and Gardens Complete Canning Guide.
