Constantly curious and motivated to connect people, languages, and cultures through immersive, sustainable travel. I am inspired by the cultural value of food & rural heritage as a means to create meaningful experiences in the present that carry forward food systems change into the future. Being Italian and Egyptian, from Canada, I am especially intrigued by the beauty, resiliency, history, traditions, and mythos of the Mediterranean.I am a Master's graduate in Food Studies with extensive experience in communications, project management, and business development in local food systems, food education and food & wine tourism, as well as in study abroad, in small teams and in remote environments. As a highly organized, strategic thinker with creative skills and sharp attention to detail, I thrive in assessing gaps in communications or services and then building effective strategies, programs or processes to achieve goals.
