Victoria E. Kichuk

A chocolate educator, writer, and tour guide for almost 15 years, Victoria Kichuk, and her company, Cocoa Beantown, brings a truly unique blend of engaging storytelling abilities with an accessible approach to food education that ushers audiences toward a new appreciation of chocolate while learning about its greater historical, geographical, scientific, or cultural context. Her exceptional ability to foster a sense of connection --both amongst event attendees and to the greater chocolate world, makes her events both tremendously enjoyable and incredibly memorable. Career highlights include visiting cacao farms in Colombia in 2019 and collaborating on chocolate educational events as invited by Dr. Carla Martin of the Fine Cacao and Chocolate Institute at Harvard University.
