Rowena Scherer is the Founder and CEO of eat2explore, an award-winning company that offers food and cultural experiential cooking kits designed to unite families through the joy of culinary adventures. These kits blend the discovery of global cultures and cuisines with fun learning. Rowena, who is also the author of the cookbook, A Taste of The World: Celebrating Global Flavors, grew up cooking with her family in Malaysia. However, as a financial executive in New York City (working for JPMorgan in Asia and New York) and a parent of two, she forgot the joy of taking a break and cooking with her family. So, she decided to combine the things she treasured most—family, food, travel, and education—and create an opportunity for families like hers to discover cuisines and cultures from around the world while enjoying a shared meal together. Founded in 2018, eat2explore has been featured in Forbes, The New York Times, CNN, The Wall Street Journal, BuzzFeed, and the Today Show, among other popular media, and is the recipient of the Parents’ Choice Foundation Gold Award. Rowena holds an EMBA from the NYU Stern Executive program and is a graduate of The French Culinary Institute.
