Kitchen All Stars Program Associate, Columbia Heights
Amanda Kirsch graduated from Northwestern College in Iowa, where she earned degrees in psychology and cultural studies and discovered her passion for youth development.
 
Her interest in accessibility of quality education and enrichment experiences for youth began after serving with a non-profit organization focused on community development through educational support. She continues to welcome opportunities to work with and grow alongside youth in interactive settings outside the traditional classroom.  
 
Amanda’s diverse teaching experiences with youth of all ages have convinced her that learning and growth happen in a variety of environments—including the kitchen! Integrating both her joys for cooking and youth development, Brainfood is an exciting place to be.
