Experience

Rose Egelhoff writes and edits for Mexico News Daily. She is also a freelance writer and translator covering topics related to food, immigration and occasionally science. As a child, her life goal was to be a reporter for the Cleveland Plain Dealer, or a truck driver.

Rose studied biology at Pomona College then got her start in journalism with a job with a small newspaper. She has been based in Mazatlán since 2018.

Rose's Desert Island Food: Papa loca! Also my go-to order at any taco stand. Think a roasted potato mashed with cheese, loaded with grilled steak, pico de gallo, guacamole, grilled onion, beans, a bunch of salsas and sometimes lettuce. It's a cheater's answer: basically just everything delicious on top of a potato, wrapped in tin foil.
