Joy Shull is the the content creator and recipe developer behind Build Your Bite, a food blog that focuses on vegetarian and vegan recipes.

In 2014, Joy dropped out of college one semester short of a degree to pursue her dream job – food blogging. Looking back today, she does not regret her decision.  She has turned her blog from a part time hobby to a business that supports her family.

Joy is very passionate about doing what you love for a living and loves to encourage other entrepreneurs to find a way to make it work.

Joy taught herself to cook at 15, a necessity when living most of the time with a dad and three older brothers. Her dad’s idea of a home cooked meal was a frozen dinner with three rounds of salt and pepper, so she spent many nights learning new recipes to cook for her family.

Joy is married to Robbie and has a two year old son named Crosby, who is her biggest motivator.
