It was as an undergraduate that she started her writing career with a monthly column in the TASTE section of the Duluth News Tribune. She also started an underground pop-up restaurant called Martha's Daughter. Her food garnered a cult following and on her graduation day she picked up the keys to her new brick and mortar. Banda helped put Duluth on the map with her critically acclaimed restaurant Martha's Daughter, described by the Minneapolis Star-Tribune as "a stylish reflection of its chef/owner" with "an eclectic and globe-hopping menu of meticulously prepared and wonderfully affordable dishes."

Banda has since returned to her hometown of Amherst, Massachusetts where she teaches Culinary Arts at Holyoke Community College and continues to freelance. Banda has contributed to Food52, Thrillist, Saveur, and RESY; she also contributed an essay to the book Knives and Ink.
