About Naomi

Like most food lovers, my food career began in my mother’s kitchen where the emphasis on cooking, creating and sharing was such a strong part of my childhood.

It wasn’t long before I followed a career in food, developing my skills as an educator, recipe developer, food stylist, writer, event manager and marketer.

Today, I use all these skills and experience to deliver quality customised services to my food industry clients.

The thrill of developing new projects and bringing them to life is why I love what I do.

testimonials

Passionate, tenacious, creative and inspiring. That’s Naomi. When those qualities are brought into contact with food in any shape or form, something magic happens. In my time working with Naomi she made me think of food differently – she made the complex simple, the boring fun and the bland exquisite. She has a great ability to create connections be it with people, functions, disciplines or ideas to deliver a plan or a new way forward. I watch in fascination as she continues to do this with amazing gravitas 20 years on.
