Grateful Owner
Italian Culinary Adventures

Rhonda Vilardo

As founder/owner of Italian Culinary Adventures, Rhonda begins an exciting new chapter in Italy after five years of living her dream in Tuscany as co-owner of Tuscan Women Cook. Rhonda was intimately involved in every facet of the running of this esteemed 21 year old culinary immersion program, including guest/community relations, classes, sales and marketing. Before her work in Italian culinary travel, Rhonda spent nearly 20 years as a private label cosmetics director, developing successful brand strategies for an array of clients. Rhonda can often be found in her kitchen rolling fresh pasta, simmering a fragrant sugo and striving to perfect her cantucci.
