Throughout my life, I have worked a considerable amount in food related industries. One of the most profound experiences of my young working life, was the time I spent with the About Life Natural Marketplace company. In this time, I developed knowledge surrounding wholefoods and superfoods that inspired a life-long language for my everyday culinary experiences. 

During this time, I also had the pleasure of connecting with inspiring individuals who spoke the same language and with whom I built a deep rapport with. One of these individuals is the lovely Giulia Pantano, who I worked very closely with. Giulia has spent years in the food industry, and her time working with produce from a young age, to Wholefoods abroad and as a Visual Merchandiser at Aboutlife, are a display of her wealth of knowledge when it comes to food trends. 

Giulia is an exceptional cook and I have had the pleasure of experiencing her passion for food for family, food as medicine and food as an expression of creativity and love. Living a life with chronic pain, Giulia has adapted a lifestyle that includes foods for healing and soothing. Her knowledge is innate but the true gift that Giulia is, is just how she connects with herself and her family through food. 

I don’t really need an excuse to have a conversation with Giulia as she is a dear friend of mine, but I’m so glad you all get the pleasure of hearing her speak about her connection with food.
