Tenae Beane

Tenae had always dreamed of working for a magazine where she would write and design her own column about food, but life steered her in a different direction, and she found herself in the world of development projects. She has a professional background in local government, where she brings coordination and municipality process knowledge to the Ripley team. She is fulfilled in this work by helping others achieve their project dreams, while navigating the governmental processes that come along with it. Seeing how the places we love and interact with every day come to exist is really cool and she is happy to be a part of it. As for the food, she still enjoys it in the form of trying new restaurants and cooking for her family.
