This episode of Culinary Atlanta is brought to you by HandPicked ATL and PokeBurri.
After moving to Atlanta in 2014 Alyssa Fagien quickly fell in love with the city. Not knowing how long she would remain in Atlanta, she created a “bucket list” of restaurants and activities she wanted to experience. With a background in marketing and a passion for photography, Alyssa decided to create an Instagram account to document her adventures. And in March of 2015 ATL Bucket List was born. Fast forward three years and ATL Bucket List is now one of the biggest “influencers” in Atlanta. Alyssa has had the opportunity to collaborate with amazing local and national brands such as Ford Fry Restaurants, Taste of Atlanta, American Express, Delta and more. And in 2017, Alyssa decided to take her knowledge of social media to the next level by launching her own social media agency, Atlys Media. She now manages the content creation and account management for many local brands on social.
