Susan Julia was born into a family, with Italian and Eastern European roots, that placed great importance on gathering around the table for memorable meals, expressing both cultures, and created with ingredients from her family’s backyard organic farm.
With a design background, love of travel and passion for food, Susan Julia was drawn into the world of Italian artisan food production. Skilled in recipe development, Susan loves walking into friends’ kitchens and whipping up meals using pantry items and local produce. She feels every pantry should be stocked with several quality extra virgin olive oils, one of the most essential and versatile ingredients for delicious, healthy, unforgettable meals. Susan is the owner of Susan Julia — Olive Oil Etc., where she educates consumers about artisan quality extra virgin olive oil through private tasting events, in addition to working with restaurants, hospitality, nutritionists and wellness groups.
