Samantha Onyemenam

BOV EDITOR | LONDON, U.K.

Iโ€™m a recipe developer whose love for cooking stemmed from being a vegetarian child (now vegan adult) in a house full of meat-eaters who were unfamiliar with cooking without animal products or byproducts.

Apart from cooking, I have a passion for the performing arts, teaching and fulfilling my God-given purpose which I believe is to help those who are less privileged than I am (mainly in England and Nigeria) in whatever way I can.

My Life Motto

I don’t want to live in the kind of world where we don’t look out for each other. Not just the people that are close to us, but anybody who needs a helping hand. I cant change the way anybody else thinks, or what they choose to do, but I can do my bit.โ€ย
