About Your Educator

One of my earliest memories is making bread with my mother - complete with a mini apron and footstool so I could reach the counter. Culinary expression and experimenting has always been a key pillar in my life. I worked intermittently within the food industry while teaching and studying yoga and wellness. I’ve since helped manage and open six restaurants, catered retreats, festivals & events, delivered private & public workshops and twice have deep fried hors d'oeuvres for the Prime Minister on Sussex which was a hoot. 

When I travel, I love taking cooking classes. I believe that our relationship with food is a window to our self evolution. Learning about different culinary practices or ingredients is a way to open your mind to new cultures and with environmental understanding. It is a meditation, it is creative, it is exciting and a practice of paying attention & mental flexibility.

Radical Eats are a reflection of that. A business idea that began years ago and that through radical love and patience has evolved to this. Tying in connection, education, adventure - artistry, community and wellness. These are the pillars of each lesson, workshop, video or retreat. 

I spend my week working for a rad local ethical company in the marketing world. I make food inspired by what’s available, what’s in season, and how much time I have on the regular. Reinventing leftovers is a guilty pleasure of mine. I look forward to putting an apron on and sharing some bites together soon!
