Natalie is a food & beverage analyst with Watershed Communications in Portland, Oregon. She has been involved with the f&b world for many years, first as a culinary arts columnist with The Harvard Crimson, at numerous start-ups (wine distributor, as well as artisan cheeseboard maker), and now as an ethnographic research with Watershed. She is interested most in the story behind a product and the culture around it. On the weekend she loves to cook, yoga, trail run, and check out what's new in the art scene.
