Tri-C Culinary Grad Named an Instagram Must-Follow

Food stylist Ramat Wiley lands in Cleveland Magazine spotlight

Cuyahoga Community College (Tri-C^®) culinary graduate Ramat Wiley deserves your attention, according to Cleveland Magazine.

The publication included Wiley on a list of 20 black women to follow on Instagram after identifying her as one of Cleveland’s most interesting influencers. The story is rooted in the growing #AmplifyMelanatedVoices movement.

“These 20 fantastic follows are just a few of the many local black women who take to Instagram to share their passion for everything from fashion and fitness to parenthood and politics — and, of course, for the city itself,” noted the writer, Kate Bigam Kaput.

Wiley graduated from Tri-C’s culinary program in 2016 with an Associate of Applied Business degree and two professional certificates. She now works as a food stylist with clients across the country.

The lifelong Clevelander turned to Tri-C after deciding to change careers. She had been working as a police dispatcher before answering the call to work in a kitchen.
