Sage Neri
Sage is interested in food and everything happening around it. At Delish Philippines, she leads content operations, working across the editorial and creative process to keep ideas moving from concept to publication. In her kitchen, she's either making bread, pasta, crudo, or anything cake adjacent. With a career spanning editorial, marketing, strategy, brand, and digital media, she finds herself more interested in the intersections of food, culture, and creativity. She’s particularly drawn to how food is presented and discussed—from its visual language, whether meticulously composed or deliberately unfussy, to the conversations and influences that shape how we eat and talk about it. Taking that love further, she took a career sabbatical to stage in professional kitchens including stints at some of the Philippines’ most notable restaurants. Curious about food in all its forms, she continues to let it shape how she thinks about people, places, and things.
