I am a writer, business woman, and award winning social entrepreneur. One of my many awards includes being named as a Red Magazine “Red Hot Business Woman” for which the award ceremony was located at 10 Downing street in London. Seriously.

A Canadian native of German and English parents (mother was born in Hamburg and arrived in Canada via Puerto Rico; father was born in London, grew up in Hangkow, and arrived as a refugee in Canada in 1940), the vast majority of meals were had around the kitchen table and included debates about the state of the Canadian economy, the merits of potatoes vs rice, and discussions about the next meal. All of our food was prepared at home and, as my mother insisted she could taste preservatives, she did not buy a I am a writer, business woman, and award winning social entrepreneur.

My least favourite job was being the self-appointed head of global photocopying at an accounting firm before machines copied double sided, or collated. Thankfully a good education (BA and MA in English; MBA) and a series of wonderful jobs that involved brilliant colleagues, fascinating clients, thousands of air miles, and a great deal of dining out (as well as advancements in photocopy technology) has meant that I get to do my most favourite jobs most of the time. My most favourite jobs are when I work as part of a team to solve complicated problems and produce content that engages and inspires people, and effects positive change. Writing is a big part of that.

In addition to four cook books (Making Bread at Home, The Book of Buns, Homemade Sourdough, and Mexico: The World Vegetarian) I have written articles for various scholarly and foodie magazines in the UK. I founded Bread Angels to change the world through bread, and I work with senior leaders in multi-national companies around the world as a strategy consultant and executive coach. Until recently I lectured to undergraduates in Mexico about critical thinking and rhetoric. I am a secret poet.
