PORTFOLIO

While interconnected, my work broadly fits into the four boxes of ‘education’, ‘art’, ‘events’, and ‘consulting’. In each box ‘Cake & Conversation’ are fused to create learning, strategic action, and joy for social change. 

I look forward to helping you create the ‘Cake & Conversation’ experience that is right for you, your group or your organization.

CONSULTING

Enacting social change both big and small requires having a detailed understanding of a problem and an honest deliberation about strategies and actions that promise long-term success.

Being versed in both the academic and practical discussions around food and its connection to social justice and sustainability, I am happy to assist your group or organization with strategic planning and organizational development.

I also offer networking, skill and confidence coaching for individuals who want to find their place in food and social justice related work.
