Vision Statement

I blend mindful strategy with the rich tapestry of food culture, drawing on cultural wisdom to guide meaningful change. My work is about more than systems—it's about reimagining how we connect to food, to each other, and to the world around us. I help organisations craft purposeful, authentic paths forward, where every decision reflects the values of mindfulness, community, and respect. Together, we create change that feels both personal and powerful.

PhD Project

Currently conducting ethnographic research on food cultures in community food initiatives in the UK. I am examining a deep case study of the Granville Community Kitchen in South Kilburn, London. My work is transdisciplinary in that it unites frameworks from the cultural anthropology of food, psychology of emotion, and visceral geography.
