Manage episode 328383135 series 2773222
I am joined by Kelsea. She is half-Chinese and lives in Toronto. With a BFA from OCAD and a lifetime of work in hospitality she currently works in film production but has recently made the big career leap after working for celebrity chef Susur Lee for 10 years as Chief of Staff and Executive Assistant. Whom I interviewed on the podcast earlier!
She’s currently working on a podcast called Mixed Feelings which is set to air this May, The podcast will cover interviews about representation in film, colourism, food rituals and other topics mixed people sometimes have mixed feelings about growing up in a globalized modern world.
Her big interests are food, hospitality, and media. She is happiest when watching TV or trying new restaurants or recipes. She recently took an online graduate-level course with Boston University in Food Studies on Gender Studies where she specifically focused on Chinese birth and death rituals relating to food and deferred (due to COVID) a 6-month culinary position in France at Ecole Ducasse with Chef Alaine Ducasse. She’s looking forward to what her 30s look like for her and how she’ll be able to blend all of her skills and interests together to create an interesting and exciting future!
