Tina Yonas

Hi. I am a Bay Area based entrepreneur with over 5 years of experience in project management, marketing, and manufacturing specifically in the food industry.

I started out sharing stories during my four years as a reporter DJ at KUCR 88.3 FM. While interviewing an anthropoligst that focused on tribal life in Fiji, I was inspired by the way the people lived in harmony with their ecological surroundings. It forced me to reexamine how I related to food and in turn it became my mission to help facilitate a hollistic relationship with food for others . It has lead me all over the world from Guatemala to Ethiopia and I've used these experieces to found Bohemian Alchemy, a succesful raw chocolate truffle pop-up with a catalog of 17 flavors.

After Bohemian Alchemy I started work rebranding and updating the operations at a medium scale e-commerce food company in Berkeley. I am also a freelance startup consultant for artisanal natural products. I love helping small businesses find a marketing plan that effectivley communicates their ideals to a relevant audience, while also helping them find operationally what they need to support those sales.

I do my best thinking over a decorated cappuccino and strawberry macarons. I'm an avid neighborhood cyclist and terrarium builder.
