Ciera Velarde
Senior Editor
Ciera is a senior editor at The Infatuation who edits restaurant reviews and guides across all of our major cities. Before the age of 12, she lived in five different places (El Paso, Tampa, San Francisco, Detroit, and Orange County, CA) before finally settling in Dallas, which explains why she occasionally says “y’all” but doesn’t have a Texas accent. She believes in the healing power of a dirty martini, a half dozen oysters, and an order of french fries, and as a current Connecticut resident, is constantly searching for the perfect (hot) lobster roll.
