Julia's Journey to Alternative Protein

Julia's journey into the alternative protein field was inspired by her concern for animals and the environment. After realizing that farming animals wasn't a sustainable solution, she became vegan and saw the potential of alternative proteins to make a positive impact. Joining the Boganigan Alternative Protein Project and attending conferences allowed her to connect with like-minded individuals and expand her knowledge. She pursued internships and projects related to alternative proteins, ultimately landing a food science internship at Hoxen Farms, where she focuses on cultivated fat tissue.
