Alina thrives when working at the intersections connecting food sovereignty, art, culture, people of the diaspora, wellness, ethical entrepreneurship, and magical realism.  An ancient futurist, she values right relations, justice, solutionist thinking, and joy. <p style="margin:0px 0px 0.25rem;padding:0px;font-weight:400;cursor:text;box-sizing:border-box;counter-reset:list-1 0 list-2 0 list-3 0 list-4 0 list-5 0 list-6 0 list-7 0 list-8 0 list-9 0;font-style:normal;font-variant-ligatures:normal;font-variant-caps:normal;letter-spacing:normal;orphans:2;text-align:left;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;widows:2;word-spacing:0px;-webkit-text-stroke-width:0px;white-space:pre-wrap;text-decoration-thickness:initial;text-decoration-style:initial;max-width:100%"> <p style="margin:0px 0px 0.25rem;padding:0px;font-weight:400;cursor:text;box-sizing:border-box;counter-reset:list-1 0 list-2 0 list-3 0 list-4 0 list-5 0 list-6 0 list-7 0 list-8 0 list-9 0;font-style:normal;font-variant-ligatures:normal;font-variant-caps:normal;letter-spacing:normal;orphans:2;text-align:left;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;widows:2;word-spacing:0px;-webkit-text-stroke-width:0px;white-space:pre-wrap;text-decoration-thickness:initial;text-decoration-style:initial;max-width:100%">
