Stan Juzwiak

Stan grew up on a small organic vegetable farm in southeast Minnesota. Weeding the garden and packing the harvest into CSA boxes gave him an appreciation for the story of food. While at the University of Minnesota, Stan found his way into the video scene working as a music videographer for artists in the twin cities. He now uses the skills and styles from the music video world with his food production background to create captivating culinary content. Stan prefers his chocolate chip cookies without the chocolate chips.

Rachel Arnold

Originally from the Land of Cheese (Go Pack Go!), Rachel grew up in a family with a heavy appreciation for cooking and the arts. After working too long in the healthcare field, she finally returned to the creative world as a photographer. She has always loved to cook, talk about food, bake, drink lots of coffee, and take photos of everything, so joining the Foodist Team is basically a dream. Fact: Rachel is VERY allergic to carrots.

Amber Johnson

Amber is an award-winning video and film producer and director that specializes in media and communications campaigns that leverage a strategic approach to connecting with audiences. Some of her friends call her Danger. A college nickname that has lived long past graduation but has come to represent her fearless and trailblazing attitude toward creative work.

Josh Oak

Josh started out at Foodist as one of the main videographers and editors. He has spent time in many different parts of the production process for dozens of different clients. He takes his hands-on experience creating videos to continue producing them to higher and higher levels as the content director! He talks about running so much that it almost sounds like he knows what he’s saying.

Alex Ray

Alex is bringing her two greatest passions, cooking and filmography, together to tell stories about food. She has worked in food media and marketing for over 12 years on both a local and international level. She loves breaking the barriers of traditional video marketing to provide a larger online presence to emerging food brands and businesses. When she isn’t in the studio, Alex can be found playing the drums around the Twin Cities!

Joey Mueller

Joey has nearly a decade of experience managing digital advertising and social media campaigns for brands and companies of all sizes, from local restaurants to cable companies. He brings transparency and valuable insights to every client he works with, and is passionate about driving measurable growth. His diverse background, business acumen, and experience working directly with stakeholders allows him to effectively communicate with all parties, delivering multi-channel solutions that are thoughtful and effective.
