Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolRita Oakford is a seasoned hospitality professional and self-taught silk artist with over three decades of hands-on experience in pastry, kitchen leadership, and hotel operations. Based in Odenthal, Germany, she balances a current role in the hotel and restaurant sector with running RitaSilkArt, where her intuitive, one-of-a-kind hand-painted silks blend batik, salt-texturing, and freeform dye techniques. A former educational head of domestic science in Wolfsburg and office administrator at Inventio Software, Rita brings both practical teaching experience and administrative rigor to creative entrepreneurship. Her background in confectionery and pastry arts informs a meticulous attention to detail and process discipline in her artwork. Unusually for someone with roots in hospitality, she also lists embedded software and hardware development on GitHub, signaling a quietly diverse technical curiosity alongside her culinary and artistic craft. Rita aims to uplift others through the joy and spontaneity embedded in each unique silk piece.
