"Thank you for the wonderful training and treats! The statistics were particularly eye-opening for me and give a good basis for conversations with our hourly employees in the mill about the impact of diversity within our workplace.

Thank you again for spending time with the cohort to educate us and open our eyes in such a unique and impactful way, this was an experience that I’ll likely remember for the rest of my life."

"My team has worked with Chef Maria Kemp for the past several years to bring educational and informational events and opportunities to our organization. Chef Maria’s lived experience, professionalism, and advocacy is what distinguishes herself as a vendor and speaker and why we love bringing her back to share her work and be a part of our panel discussions. Chef Maria shares her authentic self, goes above and beyond to follow-up with resource offerings, and has always maintained contact to share the amazing work she’s doing in her community as well as opportunities to connect at conferences. My team and I are grateful to have maintained contact with Chef Maria throughout the years and to have worked with her in various capacities."
