People ask me all the time how - and why - I became the Vanilla Queen. There's a simple answer and there's a longer story. The simple answer: I've always loved vanilla and, as I have an inquiring mind, I wanted to learn everything possible about vanilla. What began as curiosity eventually led to devoting my life to the promotion of this incredible tropical treasure and the people who grow it. And for that, I became known as the Vanilla Queen.
