Public Speaking
Guest Writer for Portland Biz Connect e-zine
Sometime recently it dawned on me that as a Chef, I never really thought much about public speaking and writing. I mean, I have had my share of soap boxes, and this blogging thing seems harmless enough, but writing articles and speaking to public utility companies about Sustainability was not something I had previously considered. It’s been fun and interesting and a great process to grow and learn as well.
I had met Megan Doern from the Portland Business Alliance on an Alliance wine tour of Sokol Blosser Winery. During the bus ride we had chatted about the food, wine, the Alliance, and Sustainability. Megan mentioned about the Aliiance e-zine titled Small Biz Connection. She had said the August/September issue would feature agriculture and and sustainable farming. Well… one thing let to another (and a few glasses of wine later) and the next thing I know, I am a writing an article for them!
