    IN THEIR OWN WORDS:
    “As a food scientist, I believe I have an important role to play in ensuring a safe, nutritious, and ample global food supply; I love contributing towards making that happen through my work at CR.  At home, I enjoy developing simple, nutritious versions of complex traditional recipes (for our busy lives, and especially for my toddler!), reading, and art and design.”
