About Belinda With a flair for spontaneity, pizzazz, creative excellence and her own unique sense of aesthetic grace and perspective, we have our very dear friend, Belinda (or B, to some of us). Although an incredibly accomplished professional and career woman, B’s down-to-earth approach and demeanor transcends all scenarios, communities and people. She manifests, in her day-to-day, the essence of the word “Zomppa” as demonstrated by her extraordinary commitment to creating sustainable and positive change for us and future generations to come. She’s asked for a dog every year since she was five. Check out Belinda’s work on  global education research and coaching: www.hummingbirdrcc.com or more about her portfolio www.belindachiu.com.

Her penchant for honesty and genuine pursuit to lead a good life has garnered her many fans, although she is far too modest to even realize this. A connoisseur of espressos, cappuccinos and Italian gastronomy, Kat will gladly share her opinions in one of four languages.

About Patty We all have a friend in our lives who is smart, witty, intelligent: you give her cold pasta and chicken and she will whip out a gourmet meal in 15 minutes, she makes chicken soup from scratch for her sick neighborhood even though she is nursing a cold herself… you know that friend who will always be there to drive common sense into you, but doesn’t realize that she is as perfect as they come as a mother, wife and friend. That is our Patty…. (She is also practical to a fault sometimes….) With two precocious and unquestionably adorable little girls, her days are more than full. Patty’s homemade, organic meals for her family make any gourmand jealous. Don’t get us started on her cupcakes or scones–there’s never an excuse for trading taste and health with her–she manages to combine both. She is also an amazing photographer of babies, food, and everything in between.
