When I started this blog earlier this year, I knew I would need different perspectives to give examples to the wide range of nutritional career choices available.  Through Twitter, I found a link to Ashley’s SXSW proposal, which represented exactly the type of complementary perspective from food policy that would benefit this project.

The Good Food Movement is using twitter, blogging, newspapers, movies and other creative forms of media to fuel changes in the way we eat and produce our food.

As added to the author page, here is a little about Ashley:
