Leigh Wolf @IgniteLansing

by | Friday, October 02, 2009

Leigh Wolf, my partner in crime as far as the MAET program goes, recently presented at Ignite Lansing. She talked about her two passions, teaching and food (not sure which order to place these).

It is a lovely presentation, and the video is now available on YouTube. Take a look.
