Hailing from sunny Singapore, Jay is a creative foodie with a keen interest in funky ferments. Growing up in a densely urbanized region of South-East Asia and with a decade of experience in the food industry, Jay has developed a deep appreciation for sustainable food systems and a longing for alternative foods. As a fermentation workshop host, Jay passionately explores and shares the rich cultural heritage of traditional fermentation practices. She believes in the power of food to connect people across different ethnicities and backgrounds, creating a shared space for learning and appreciation. Inspired by a desire to experience alternative ways of living and accessing food, Jay chose to settle down in Melbourne, where she has been enjoying the vibrant community and cultural diversity. Her journey reflects a commitment to fostering interconnections between people and promoting a sustainable, inclusive food culture.
