About me

I have been working on food and agriculture in international policy for nearly two decades mainly in developing countries. Food is a crucial part of my life that not only sustains me but also connects me to my family, friend, and keep me grounded to my culture (s). The UK is a great hub for ideas on food and sustainability, and I’d love to be part of that conversation. I can bring a global perspective from my work abroad and learn from the UK’s innovative approaches.
