About Laura Valli
Brought up in Estonia on a diet heavy on rye bread, Laura has put the small and often underappreciated grain that is rye in the focus of her research at the WSU Breadlab. Laura comes to WSU Breadlab with a B.A. in Social Anthropology from the University of Cambridge and more than two years’ experience of managing a small organic coffee roastery and porridge café in her hometown in Estonia. She is working towards her Ph.D. under the guidance of Dr. Stephen S. Jones. Born and raised in Estonia on rye bread, it seemed only natural to focus her research on rye, a much-underappreciated grain here in the US.
