Angela Ortmann is a Jill of all trades. She has conquered the hospitality industry by working back of house, to front of house, and all things in between. Her curiosity has led her to other major cities across the country to indulge in the learning opportunities of wineries, breweries, organic farms and creameries.
After returning to STL a few years back, she has become a close friend to those in the industry. She is dedicated to understanding the art that happens in the kitchen, and appreciates what is served on the plate in the dining room.
Angela jumps at presented opportunities to bring together her passion for food and community. Through her non-profit organization, Love to eat, eat to love, she puts a focus on crucial social issues and raises awareness to support those in need.
This episode we learn how embracing the path unplanned can be sweet, and how we can promote change when life is savory. Listen to how Angela’s entrepreneurial journey has led her to raise not just a glass, but raise the stakes for others to give back to the community.
