My next guest is Angela Rakis, founder of Favorite Daughter LLC. Angela's diverse career path is a testament to her strategic planning skills and passion for food and community.
Throughout our conversation, Angela shares the importance of networking, taking leaps of faith, and the courage to pursue one's dreams. Her story is one of combining business savvy with personal passions, and she offers valuable insights and inspiration.
Angela's journey began in advertising, where she worked with prestigious brands like Mercedes-Benz and Jaguar. Her love for food led her to the French Culinary Institute, followed by hands-on experience at Eileen's Special Cheesecake. Angela's career took a significant turn when she joined Whole Foods Market, where she honed her skills in retail execution and leadership, contributing to the organic and local food movement.
After a decade at Whole Foods, Angela sought a new perspective at Eden's Realty as Vice President of Marketing, where she focused on enriching communities by supporting independent businesses and creating engaging experiences.
