Nina Berman was born in Cambridge, MA and grew up overseas in New Delhi, India. Ever since she stained her fingers pink eating fresh raspberries in Vermont as a child, she’s found a passion for growing, cooking, and eating delicious food. Nina supports big and small food businesses with business strategy, menu, brand, and recipe development. She currently is the Associate Director of Projects at The Culinary Edge in San Francisco, a F&B design agency.

In her free time, Nina runs a series of Polish food pop ups under the business name “Ciocia” meaning aunt in Polish, an homage to her Eastern European heritage and her Babcia’s cooking. You can find her pierogi around the Bay Area and beyond. Ciocia is available for catering and private events!
