After a long 2.5 year run of leadership, I am rounding up a fruitful Cleveland and Cuyahoga Food Policy year with new friends from around the world! I am very happy to have advocated and supported local food systems in Ohio -- growing food, thinking critically and making a little healthy noise from time to time. Thank you to all who have been supportive of this work and who have believed in my intentions, vision and integrity to bring a lens of experience and healthy competitive leadership to the foodscape.
