Julianna Whiteway grew up in Syracuse, N.Y., with four older brothers who trained her to be a loyal Orange fan. Food has been on her mind since she was a kid, and cooking in the kitchen with friends and family is where she feels the most creative and humbled. Whiteway’s work across several different industries, including media relations, education, and theatre, and her time as a sous chef in both New York City and Indianapolis has inspired her to tell the story of others through video and podcasts every chance she gets.
