My qualifications include a B.S. in Food Science and Technology from the University of California at Davis, USA; a D.E.A. (auditor) in Food Science from the University of Dijon, France; and an M.S. in Applied Biology from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, USA.

My commercial experience includes research, new product development and technical roles within Mutual Citrus Products, Cadbury-Schweppes, Gerber Foods Manufacturing, and British Sugar.
