Adam is Founder of My Lucky Tummy, a multinational popup food court as well as Program Director of With Love, a teaching restaurant & entrepreneur incubator. He grew up in food because his Mom studied under Julia Child. He captained his first wedding the summer he turned 16. Later he went to grad school for Critical Theory then got into events in NYC running big, splashy soirees for Gucci & Bentley & Krug. In the months he wasn’t working for the $50,000 handbag crowd he’d disappear to Cameroon, Cambodia, Morocco, India, Nicaragua, Turkey, etc. indulging a yen for travel. Adam had this long-simmering dream of building a multinational food court, stalls run by people from all over, making what they knew and loved. Discussion will touch on topics such as: Why Lucky?, Haute and Homespun, Framing Refugees and What’s Next.
