Welcoming Pinkie: Our chef intern

Welcome Pornsiri Temcharoen (aka Pinkie) to Team 14.ai... our chef intern!

Pinkie is an undergrad at UC Berkeley studying Nutritional Science and Microbial Biology, but don’t let the student title fool you. She’s already Head of Product at UNCRACKED, a food-tech startup focused on sea moss and clean-label ingredients.

She’s developed recipes at Plantiful Café in Bangkok, mentored student founders in plant-based innovation, and holds a Food Safety Manager certification.

Her trial with us? Insane. The food was next-level, and turns out, way healthier (and cheaper) than daily Uber Eats.

But what sealed the deal was her application. It read like a love letter to food, science, and community. She wrote:

“When health became a priority during the pandemic, I became my family’s private chef. Inspired by the ‘Food as Medicine’ philosophy, I’ve been cooking ever since, to nourish, energize, and care.”

We’re lucky to have her, and even luckier to eat her food. 💜
