Valerie: Professor - PROOF

Valerie speaks about food access as a Professor and focusing on facts, and data with infographics from her communication via PROOF. She is well spoken - but also is direct about complex topics. Be ready to hear about food, cost, pricing, and the challenging decisions people make when it is hard to acquire food. ----- “Food… is not something everyone has access to in ways that they should… it is a playground right now for a lot of special interests to play out… so I see it very much as a political thing.” “she got a payment for something… she talked about going and buying a chicken… roasting it for her and her daughter, and she said how good it felt to roast a chicken finally… when you hear that story your heart just breaks.”
