She had Amy and me to her house in New Zealand. She ran the 5K race at the Ohio State Fair. And now shes coming to rock Manhattan (Kansas).
Philippa Ross-James, Program Manager Communications, with the New Zealand Food Safety Authority, will share her experience promoting food safety practices in culturally acceptable ways with New Zealand’s indigenous people — Maori, and New Zealand’s Pacific peoples.
Philippa began her career as a food technologist in the dairy industry.
After taking a break to raise children, Philippa retrained in communications and now works in the corporate communications group of the New Zealand Food Safety Authority.
Her talk will happen at Kansas State Universitys Student Union, room 206, 10-11 a.m., on Monday, Aug, 11, 2008.
