HI, I'M LIZZY.
A FOOD CULTURE
WRITER/CONSULTANT
I help mission-driven food entrepreneurs create modern, intelligent brands rooted in culture and history. I also tell stories.
WHAT I BRING TO THE TABLE
If it involves food, I either know something about it or know where to find it
I live and breathe stories. I understand words and how to make language beautiful.
Food is the most personal of things, and the personal is political.
LATEST PROJECT
Project Advisor - Harvard GSE
Food & Sustainability Webcomic
I'm currently providing a group of Harvard graduate students with writing help and content advice for a series of short comic strips about the future of the planet, global warming, and the food system.
Lizzy was invited to speak to my Food and Culture course. I had assigned her article "On Colonial Nostalgia and Food in Fantasy Writing." She was great, and students learned so much! I think what was most captivating for our class was her impressive knowledge about so many different aspects of food, and her ability to make connections to social, political, and cultural issues.
