FOOD
FOOD needs to be in critical, constructive, uplifting, life giving and creative conversations.
let's talk about it in a variety of settings:
... and continue to talk about it until it is fair-fulfilling-fresh for all.
with our grandparents
and uber drivers.
in kindergarten and in university.
on our first dates and our family dinners.
with shameless excitement.
with our students during lunchtime.
to raise awareness of
past & present injustices.
at congressional sessions.
with a variety of voices.
food
occupies, shapes, and is dictated by
space and place

Children need to engage
in the cooking process; the level of enthusiam for finishing a recipe and then eating it is transformative.
d e s i g n
food is powerful on its own.
but with a little help from design, more people can see its value in:
-
fueling health,
-
educating minds,
-
and connecting people.
"I am exploring
food design
through a variety
of mediums."
I blog about solo cooking, as a single person, using recipes formatted for cute couples and functional family meals.
