Welcome to our newest staff member, Julian! He is originally from Phoenix and moved to Saint Paul in 2020 to attend Macalester College, where he studied Environmental Studies with a focus on food and agriculture. Previously, he worked as a Farm Steward at urban agriculture nonprofit Youth Farm and, more recently, as a Food Pantry Specialist at VEAP.

In his free time, I enjoy cooking, trying new coffee shops, and exploring the cities.
