Juna Gjata
Juna Gjata graduated from Harvard College with a Bachelor's in Cognitive Neuroscience and Evolutionary Psychology and a minor in Music.
In a random plot twist, Juna actually aspired to be a concert pianist up until 2018, so she spent most of her late teens and early twenties in dark, cold practice rooms, plunking away at pieces by Chopin and Rachmaninoff. Her hours in these tiny rooms led her to some pretty cool opportunities playing at Carnegie Hall and the Kennedy Center. Ultimately however, she decided she loved people too much (and was far too unskilled) to make it as a concert pianist.
In 2018, she launched the hit podcast Food We Need to Talk with Boston's NPR station, WBUR. The podcast focuses on her other passion, health and fitness
