Hello, I'm Julia, a UK-based food writer, baker and cook.

​​

I am interested in food justice and believe that food is a powerful design tool that can offer solutions, empower and educate.

​​​​​​​

I started my career as an industrial designer, graduating from the Royal College of Art, London. I worked in design for 4 years and taught on Art Foundation and MA Product Design courses at Kingston University. After being set a brief to redesign feeding systems for chickens, my interested in food and farming was piqued and I retrained as a baker in 2014.  I have almost a decade of experience in hospitality as both a baker and cook, running my own businesses and working with and for food related social enterprises.  I have been writing about food systems since publishing my cookbook, 'How to eat your Christmas tree,' in 2020. 

​​​

I've just come out of hibernation after a two year sabbatical due to ill health. During this time, I completed a qualification in Nutrition from St Mary's University and produced the podcast, 'How to eat alone'. 

 

I am now looking for future collaborators, consultancy work, workshop opportunities, cooking and baking projects and writing jobs.​​​​​​​​​
