Nicole Papantoniou, Good Housekeeping Institute
Nicole runs the Good Housekeeping Kitchen Appliances Lab where she oversees the content and testing related to kitchen and cooking appliances, tools, and gear; she’s an experienced product tester and developer, as well as recipe creator, trained in classic culinary arts and culinary nutrition. She has worked in test kitchens for small kitchen appliance brands and national magazines, including Family Circle and Ladies’ Home Journal. Nicole loves to cook and eat, and won’t stop talking about food or kitchen appliances if you prompt her. When she’s not doing something related to food, she enjoys spinning, yoga, and lying on the beach—with an insulated tumbler of wine in hand.
