As a tea educator and journalist, I believe that tea and tea culture reduce distance between people. In my tea course at Temple University, through our law school tea club, and in my articles on global tea culture, I have seen how tea disarms, unites, and creates friendships that transcend boundaries. In my research, I regularly encounter themes of physical and mental wellness, exploration and discovery, cultural sharing, and local wisdom that heals and inspires.

I guess pretty much all aspects of Tea fascinate me. From its impact on people’s lives as they grow and produce it to the impact on consumers lives as they discover and enjoy tea. One of the things that attracted me to this industry is the fact that even after thousands of years, Tea is still evolving. It gives us something to learn each and every day.
