I introduce people to cuisines through hands-on cooking classes, guided trips, and media. I am passionate about providing unique culinary experiences and a foundation to describe new foods.

​

I have: 

• Experience teaching culinary classes to all ages

• Learned how to cook while living in Eurasia

• Organized agro-tourism trips for the State Department

• Host and producer for The Culinary Citizen

​

When I am not organizing classes or tours, I am sampling beverages and products around Northern California. I love to forage while hiking along the Californian coast, grow heritage products in my garden, and volunteer with Slow Food California.
